Phone Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I applied by sending their office recruiter and email of my resume. I am friends with a brokerage advisor in my town, and he had suggested it to me since I was interested in getting into finance. Since I'm from a non-target, there are very few opportunities to get into finance as an undergraduate, so I decided to apply. They have small offices for investment banking, fixed income management, and equity research, and I made express interest in those fields. This all occurred at the end of October/beginning of November.

In early January, I received an e-mail I was selected to move on to the interview phase. We settled on a time, and did a phone interview. Things for the most part went well, until they started talking about studying for the Series 7 and working with a local brokerage advisor. I asked them about opportunities in the areas I had expressed interest in, and it sounded like they recruited separately for those position (unbeknownst to me). Things ended well enough though considering. About a week later I got a call letting me know I was not selected for the internship.
