      Insurance Sales Interview

      I interviewed at Bankers Life

      Interview

      I have received several calls from this company indicating that "a manger" wants to speak with me about a position with "leadership opportunities". They won't answer any questions about the title of the position or give me the name of the manager interested in speaking with me. When I refuse to go further without any additional information they asked me if I could afford to pass up an opportunity to earn $60K in sales commissions! Glad I saw the other reviews here so I was prepared for their subsequent calls.

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Bankers Life (San Antonio, TX) in Jul 2017

      Interview

      I applied online through one of the popular job search websites. I received a phone call and an email from a recruiter, James Randall. After the phone screen I was invited to a interview with a manager Nita. Upon arriving to Bankers Life, I was greeted by the receptionist whom directed me to a room full of other candidates (20+) that will be directed by a different manager, Kevin Bright. I was very upset that I was led to believe that I was having a 1 to 1 interview instead of the "group introduction". I figure that I will sit through the hour long sales pitch since I have drove 20 miles. What a waste of time. STAY AWAY from these people. They want you to pay for your licensing and they want you to purchase their "prep kit" for $100. The total out of pocket is well over $300 they want you to spend for a 100% commission job. On top of everything, you will be a 1099 employee without any benefits. Steer clear of this scam. They promise you the world with earnings over $100k first year based off a MLM pyramid scheme.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Will you give us over $300 for licensing and licensing prep in exchange of a 1099 position with Bankers life?

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Bankers Life (Nashville, TN) in Jun 2017

      Interview

      Got a call to do an in person interview, which was watching a powerpoint in a group setting and learning more about the company and what the position would entail. Afterwards, the person who conducted the informational powerpoint asked if we had any questions and was very kind about answering all of them.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bankers Life in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Group interview/presentation. Was never told the interview would be held in a group setting. The interview was also not an interview but a presentation about the company. They make you pay for you licensing up front and say they will reimburse you after you have been working there for a period of time. After the presentation was over they ask everyone to fill out questionnaires and asked everyone if they would like a second interview.
