      Financial Advisor Interview

      19 Jan 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Atlanta, GA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at New York Life (Atlanta, GA) in Sept 2009

      Interview

      I applied via the NYL website. Received a call within a week. Went in and interviewed with a manager who seemed bright, professional and knowledgable. However, the impression I got was more of a typical life insurance sweat shop not a professional advisor atmosphere. It seemed to me they were interested in filling up the "bull-pen" with bodies, through as much " " at the wall and seeing what stuck. Declined to move on with the process.
