I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Salt Lake City, UT)
Interview
I had worked for the company for a few years already in the same building in a few different roles with different departments. I knew the people on the team I applied to from some of my previous roles.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They always ask situational questions like "Tell me about a time that you overcame an objection." or "What would you do if ....?"
There was two step process. I intially met with the local manager and chated about the job requirements. Then I took an aptitude test and once I got past that I had a second interview with Senior Management. Well Fargo Advisors wants to make sure you are ready and prepared for what it takes to be an FA.

Question 1
Most difficult part of the interview was that the realization your first 5 years are going to be a grind. If you are not prepared to go out and carve your niche out then do not waste your time with this job. Hardest question what makes you different all the other financial adivsors out in the market today.
