the first round was screening with recruiter, basic yes/no questions. the 2nd round was video call with 2 managers. a lot of behavior questions, how to handle angry customer, what will you do under pressure etc
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
how do you prioritize if you have a long to do list
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LPL Financial (Encino, CA)
Interview
It felt very unorganized. The advisor that I was interviewing with was late, which is understandable, but also took a 5 min phone call in the middle of the interview. They seemed very unprepared for the interview, making up the interview questions as they went along. They explained the business a bit. Its a small office that uses the LPL platform but the position wasn't for the company LPL Financial.
They wanted me to interview the other advisor in the office but abruptly ended our conversation, by saying, ok thats all we need to know about that, thanks for coming in! If I had to sum it up in one word, I'd say, "Unprofessional"

Question 1
Tell me about yourself. What are your hobbles? Tell me about your last role? Why did you leave? Can we contact them?
Also very inappropriate questions like, do you have kids? Are planning on having kids? What ethnicity are you?
