I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at New York Life (Atlanta, GA) in Feb 2013
Interview
It wasn't that hard. They try to intimidate you with a panel to see if you will be nervous in from of clients. However, once you show them that you care comfortable, they drop their guard.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to be a financial services representative?
Pretty simple with the recruiter, but their application process was poorly structured. It asked me about the 2 week gap period between my summer internship and starting college and what I was doing prior to that, apparently being a child was not really the correct response.
I had three interviews but all went smoothly. But be sure to have questions ready. They really want someone who is a go getter and determined to make it in this business.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (Manchester, NH) in May 2024
Interview
It was fairly smooth first interview was mainly about me and qualifications. Second one was essentially a crash course on the position it was a little vague on the beginning being selling mostly insurance though.
