Question 1
Are you familiar with what services a financial planner provides?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life (Irvine, CA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Long process. Be prepared to be uncovered wide-open. Extensive back ground check. They claim to pay a salary, but the allowance is more like a drawl.
The allowance is equivelant to slightly above mimimun wage. You would need a part-time job to survive or another side-hustle.

They asked about my work experience and my income goals.
Casual, responsive, and fairly easy. A lot of the interview process is learning about the company. The questions are straightforward and focus on attitude and experience. Overall, you will be assigned a manager to interview you and test your relationship-building skills and team skills.
