I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at LPL Financial (San Diego, CA) in Jan 2012
Interview
I had multiple interviews for the position. First was a phone interview by the hiring manager. Later, I had a second interview with about six Vice-Presidents and/or senior managers. I received a number of questions applicable to the work I would be doing. Everyone was very friendly. The interview was very pleasant.
