I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Strategic Wealth Partners (Deerfield, IL) in Aug 2023
Interview
Initial screening call (30-40 minutes) On site interview, 2 hour long meetings with positions manager, current position holder, and COO. Very friendly, personable, clearly enjoy working there. Was a great meeting. Met with 2 advisors to share what they are looking for and their experiences. Also a great meeting. Unfortunately declined the offer because we couldn’t find a workable salary for me. However, their reasoning is because I wanted more than the rest of the team would be making. Which was a PRO. I really appreciated their openness and that they wanted to maintain a level or fairness between employees. 10/10 experience. It didn’t workout for me to accept the offer, but they are a great company and I hope that someday I can Interview again and we can find a good agreement between us for me to join the team. Would definitely recommend applying.
