Interview questions [1]
Question 1
At third and final interview, recruiter asked me to pay a $500 fee to start with company to pay for my expenses. He mentioned they only take cash. I realized later that's how they lock you in. If you leave you don't get the money back
Very informative group interview. The company seems to have a great open door policy. I'm interested in seeing the future holds with this company. The training bootcamp seem to be a bit over kill but I'm sure I could use all of the training that's offered.
They start with a group information session to learn about the company and a little bit about the position. Then they set up an actual interview where you can ask more questions.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bankers Life in Jul 2024
Interview
First thing to do when I get there is write down if I know anyone else who wants the job and their contact info. Then in the actual interview, there were barely any questions about me. I was the one asking the interviewer questions. Didn't really find out much about the company or average day of work. All they did was tell me how rich I can become if I work hard enough. Hmmmmmm..... seems like a MLM.
