      Life Insurance Agent Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Irvine, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life (Irvine, CA) in Mar 2024

      Interview

      Long process. Be prepared to be uncovered wide-open. Extensive back ground check. They claim to pay a salary, but the allowance is more like a drawl. The allowance is equivelant to slightly above mimimun wage. You would need a part-time job to survive or another side-hustle.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I dont recall the exact question, but basic Life Insurance questions.

      I interviewed at New York Life

      Interview

      Casual, responsive, and fairly easy. A lot of the interview process is learning about the company. The questions are straightforward and focus on attitude and experience. Overall, you will be assigned a manager to interview you and test your relationship-building skills and team skills.
