I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors in Jan 2016
Interview
I was approached at a career fair for my university, and was basically forced into an interview. After politely declining an interview with the "recruiter", he wrote my name down and gave me a time for the next day anyway. I went to the interview due to a university policy that ensures we do not cancel last minute or no show, and simply for extra interview practice. It was hardly an interview. He asked me one question and then proceeded to talk about HIS personal story (not even about the company) for the remaining time.
I applied online. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors
Interview
Online video interview that was vague on job duties. Interview length was fast and convincing I was a good fit but there was no follow up. Company will ghost you.

2 rounds of phone interviews and then 1 interview in office where you make a presentation about prospecting for clients once you would have the role. Phone calls were behavioral while the in office was more about your plan to succeed

Interview
3-4 one on one with manager. Very casual and more of a convo. Almost zero questions that were relevant to cold calling even tho that’s the whole job. Had to tell jokes
