Combine all previous interviews I've been in within the past 15 years and it still doesn't even come close to the commitment, prep time, and thought required to advance through the Edward Jones interview process. By the end of the process, not only do you have an idea of what it takes to work for Jones, but you truly know if this opportunity is the one for you. Each person is different, but my interview took 43 days - from resume submission to offer. The interview steps followed the outline found on their careers website to a "T". I found the people I interacted with to be very professional, thorough, and kind. Jones has a system. Their system works. And they're not changing it. Do yourself a favor and go through every single interview review on this site and copy down the various interview questions. Take the time to put thought into each question and type out your answers. Study the questions and your answers. Be prepared. I found 80 different questions and spent the time answering every one of them in detail before the first phone screening where the behavior questions begin. All in all, I spent a total of nearly 40 hours preparing for all stages of the interview. The last step is the Day in the Life Assessment. I can't stress enough - take this seriously! 4 hours flies by. They had me hopping directly out of the gate. Follow the directions and be yourself. The whole idea here is to see if you have what it takes to perform at their expected level day in and day out.
