      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Edward Jones

      Interview

      Interview process first consists of numerous dinner events, all very laid back where you get to learn more about the company and the advisors in the region, and they get to learn more about you. If you keep getting invited back to dinners, consider it progress in the interview process. Honestly, the best, most effective interview process.

      Financial Advisor Interview

      Feb 11, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Vancouver, WA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Edward Jones (Vancouver, WA)

      Interview

      it's a series of interviews with people in the office then a full-day of simulating the role of the advisor where you're receiving calls from clients and team mates as well as receiving emails. As a career-changer, this was the part of the interview phase where I realized Edward Jones wasn't the right start to my career as a financial advisor and ended up going somewhere that invested in my growth rather than a "sink or swim" type of place.
