Very conversational, trying to figure out who you are and where you want to be. Asking questions about personality traits, past experiences, seeing what you know about the company and what they do.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is one trait that you would tell your younger self to build on and keep?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Jul 2014
Interview
First interview was meeting with the recruiter- straight forward, laid back, more of a rundown of the company and answering any questions that I may have, inviting me back to meet with a senior partner. Second interview was with a partner- still relatively simple, didn't ask any technical questions, gave his rundown on the company, asked me a few questions, answered any questions I had. Third interview was fully a rundown of the company, presentations on pay structure, benefits, etc. more of them selling the company to you. Fourth and final interview was back again with the partner to finalize the entire process and to assure the two of you would work well together.
efficient zoom interview but had multiples stages/requirements that made it a bit annoying. Had me watch a video and then fill out and sign up for a secondary interview which is an odd set up in my opinion
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at New York Life (Glendale, CA) in Aug 2025
Interview
Was not really an interview, just the person showing off his salary numbers to coax you into working for them (his job has nothing to do with yours so salary is not comparable)
