I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Prudential (Frankfort, IL) in Jul 2014
Interview
4 interview process. The recruiter will call and screen you. She will then ask you to perform a personality test. If you pass this test you will then schedule an interview with the hiring manager. If you pass this you will interview with the agency trainer. There is then a structured interview with the managing director.
Make sure you understand sales and how to prospect. Professional interview with manager. Asked sales related questions and how I would manage client expectations. It was definitely a positive experience
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Prudential (Shelton, CT) in Jan 2024
Interview
Although the interviewer was nice, you could tell they were trying to get people through the door and didn't care much about background. They were trying to sell me the job versus the other way around, which is typically a red flag.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Prudential (New York, NY)
Interview
Interviewed for the New York, NY (Manhattan) branch. The whole interview process consisted of 3 interviews. First was an in-personal introduction to the role and the company, and where everything about the position and branch was broken down to you. This is basically just a time for the recruiter to gain a better sense of who you are, so don't stress about it. They are only going to spend a fraction of the time asking you personal questions. They are basic questions like, introducing yourself. Second interview was done over the phone, and this is where more traditional interview questions were asked. Nearly all questions focused around a "tell me about a time when..." style. None of them are super hard, and they should all be pretty basic if you have been through an interview somewhere else. The final interview was with the head of the branch, also done over the phone. This was more like a conversation than an interview. We basically just talked about the role, the lifestyle and culture of the role, and things along those lines. Overall, pretty easy interview process, and I had a good time with it overall. The time it took from applying to receiving the offer was just about a month, so the process was very efficient as well.
