I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Bankers Life in Mar 2011
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter who found my resume online. They invited me to a group interview which took 1hr. Then I had the opportunity to meet with someone 1:1 which I did. The initial presentation sounded great and the 1:1 interview went well. However, it did sound 'too good to be true'. I'm still in the beginning phases and have more questions for them. But I'm also finding some negative things about them on the internet. Mainly that peoples expectations weren't met. But it sounds like you really need to put in your time first, before you start seeing the fruits of your labor.

Interview
I got an email that they wanted a phone interview the next day. The phone call sounded like she was reading off of a piece of paper. I did not feel like I was being listened to. When I asked about compensation it was commission based and there was NO BASE PAY. When I told her that I had a family to provide for and could not rely on solely commission, she said "ok" and then hung up.
super easy asked at the end if I had a resume. Place cares if you sell and is 100% commsion.They want you to contribute to helping clients achieve their financial goals.
