      Advisor Associate Interview

      3 Feb 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Mobile, AL
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Waddell & Reed (Mobile, AL) in May 2009

      Interview

      I came upon the opportunity at a career fair. (That should have been my first clue.) It sounded great to begin with, but in the end they wanted me to pay for training and they were unwilling to pay any salary to get you going. Commission payment is fine once you build a clientele.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The most difficult question was "can you work for commission only after paying for the training we require?"
