Did not speak to a single person, all virtual, testing your behavior and a lot of yes or no questions. Did not appreciate there was no real person in the process.

Question 1
How would you leverage your connections to building a book of clients
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Raymond James Financial in Jun 2024
Interview
Multiple rounds of interviews, I had three. First was a brief phone call and was easy enough. The second interview was a "one sided interview" where I had to record myself answering interview questions. The last interview was a "virtual job tryout" which consisted of me taking a short math test and other tests about what I would do in various situations. Overall the process felt extremely impersonal as I only actually spoke to one person from Raymond James in that first phone call. The interview process was negative to the extent that it also made me lose my interest in working at Raymond James altogether.

Question 1
How can you leverage your existing relationships to bring new clients to Raymond James?
I interviewed at Raymond James Financial (Birmingham, AL)
Interview
Met with advisor over training program then met with office manager. Answered typical interview questions about myself. Not many technical questions, you could tell they where trying to see if I had the right personality to fit the job and the organization. After this they asked me to stay for lunch where I got to meet some of the other advisors and listen to a presentation on one of their products.
