Mission: At Advance Financial, our mission is to be the leading retailer of financial services in the communities that we serve by building strong and profitable relationships with our employees and our customers.
I worked at Advance Financial full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
Nice pay for recent graduates.
Cons
Family owned business and all the covert meanings you can imagine. Sometimes overtly in a very unprofessional manner. Don't be fooled by these reviews. All employees are strongly suggested to write reviews while someone in training observes and one is a family member of the owner. This is a high rate interest loan that caters to the poor who have nowhere else to go. Yes, that means that they provide a service, but at very high cost. Two family members of the owners, in particular, can basically tell anyone there what to do despite the department they are in.
Advice to Management
Surrender to a management company and family owners and family employees stay at home. Don't overstate your numbers of hires. Your 1,000+++ employees are mainly due to turnover. Mike, start speaking to your employees. It would be nice if you were introduced to the new hire class. After that, be decent enough to speak when you are walking around the building. Additionally, stop parking in the spots that you threaten everyone else with a tow. Tina walks from wherever she parks. Please do the same.
Application
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Advance Financial (Nashville, TN (US)) in July 2016.
Interview
I have been on a lot of interviews over the last 30 days and Advance Financial is by far the best. My recruiter (Natasha) was very consistent sweet and helpful. She communicated with me and kept me updated on whats going on. She made me feel very at ease relaxed and able to be myself during my interview process. I was excited and confident that things were going to be a success that I then put in my two weeks a couple days later wit my previous employer. Soon after my interview with Natasha I had a interview with the district matter and another interview with store manager that same day. I was super excited and couldn't wait to start with the company.
Interview Questions
We had such a blast at our last management camp! Plenty of team building activities and even some derby car racing!
