I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Tampa, FL) in Jan 2022
Interview
The process was very laid back, but still professional. First first few minutes were just questions about my personality and education. Then it got into the details about what makes their company different than others and what it takes to be a good advisor. Overall, if you are honest and knowledgeable, then the process should go smoothly.
