I applied online. I interviewed at LPL Financial (Overland Park, KS) in Sept 2021
Interview
Did the interview , received job offer, accepted job offer, did background check, but I was NEVER NEVER NEVER informed of a credit check.. This company ran my credit WITHOUT my consent. If I would have been made AWARE that my credit was one of the job qualifications I would have never even applied to this company. I was never made Aware of this qualifications until the day before I was to Start . I did complete the Onboarding process as well . They need more Honesty when it come to letting applicants know about this qualification and running peoples credit report without the applicant's knowledge or consent. They disguise checking your credit report as a back ground check.
The interview was standard. It was conducted online. The manager was pleasant enough. The interview lasted about 30 minutes. They went over salary, expectations and job growth opportunities. It was a good overall experience.

Interview
Most unprofessional interview ever. 2 men in a room with just me, a woman. They had a piece of paper with interview questions on it and clearly, they were just crossing them off the list once they asked them. One of the questions they asked me was, "If you were a pizza, what skills would be your toppings?" Ok...what? This is unnecessary. Then, later, one of them tried to get friendly with me and commiserate about Anthropology at UNCC. He loved a certain teacher that all other students do not like. Then he gleefully reminisced about another teacher there in the department who told him that rape is not wrong. 2 men - one man-splaining to a woman, in a closed room, in an interview, where they have the "power", telling me that WOW! The teacher said rape isn't wrong! Cool, huh?! I couldn't have gotten out of there faster. Turned down the job, obviously.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at LPL Financial (Fort Mill, SC) in Jan 2022
Interview
Interview is done virtually, very laid back and straight foward. Did not take more than a few days to receive an offer. Please negotiate salary even if it is unsuccessful.
