Entretien
I have been through the interviewing process and based on my research I found that the overhead once you reach the goal of having your own office is so much that it puts a huge amount of weight and stress on your continued sales production. I believe this is why there is so much turn over. I found many current and previous clients and former FA's that had experienced the turn-over of FAs and with the difficulty of continuing to meet sale quotes or your fired. Seriously, the offices should have 2 FA's for 1 BOA and not 1:1. Just my opinion. Tough to start with no book.

Question 1
Why they didn't tell me more about the sales production quotas and business model upfront is beyond my understanding.

Interview process first consists of numerous dinner events, all very laid back where you get to learn more about the company and the advisors in the region, and they get to learn more about you. If you keep getting invited back to dinners, consider it progress in the interview process. Honestly, the best, most effective interview process.

it's a series of interviews with people in the office then a full-day of simulating the role of the advisor where you're receiving calls from clients and team mates as well as receiving emails. As a career-changer, this was the part of the interview phase where I realized Edward Jones wasn't the right start to my career as a financial advisor and ended up going somewhere that invested in my growth rather than a "sink or swim" type of place.

Interview process is very lengthy. 6 steps, very in depth. HR screening, in person interview, 1 year plan, day in the life role play (3 hours long) where you had to call actors who were playing clients and prospects
