Northbrook, ILPosted Feb 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I started with a recruiter-style conversation that stayed pretty light—mostly focused on my background and past experience.

The process felt smooth and not especially stressful, and the people I spoke with came across as friendly rather than intimidating.

After that, I ran into a short sequence of steps aimed at investment readiness and fit. I was first assessed on general investment knowledge, then moved into a more hands-on job simulation where I had to work through tasks. The final step was an in-person interview at one of their offices (my location examples included places like Jacksonville, Rolling Meadows, or Phoenix), and the overall vibe stayed focused on composure and mental fortitude.
