I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Jan 2016
Interview
I was not in the city so they processed an telephone for me. They do not provide travel reimbursement. Telephone interview is pretty easy. Basically ask about your background, your plan for next 2 years, your understanding for the position. At the mean time, they will explain the position and the company. Then I get an interview in nyc

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life (Roanoke, VA) in Apr 2015
Interview
Way too long- a lot of time spent asking about friends and family which would be the first ones they want you to go to for sales. It was a very long interview and there was little talk about actual compensation plan and how it would work...IF you didn't meet the required sales amounts.
There was a lot of hype about how much you COULD earn, but it did not pan out.
