Typically 3-5 interviews with territory management and local management. Some are very structured asking about past experience, most are more focused on current skills and vision. They also have you do a variety of background and drug tests to make sure your not a criminal which I guess is good. Although the education and employment verification process is very slow.

I scheduled an interview when a prudential recruiter contacted me about a management position. Since the hiring manger was not ggoing to be in my area for a while, I agreed to meet at a location 2 hours away. Upon arriving at the interview, I was escorted through a large room filled with mostly empty cubicles to a conference room where I met the managing director of the region. The first interview question was to tell the interviewer about myself, during which I clearly explained why I was looking for a management position and wanted nothing to do with being a producer. During the next 30 minutes I learned that instead of managing an existing team, I would be responsible for recruiting my own team. Furthermore, the only way to become a manager was to start as a producer (in order to become "Prudentialized") and join their manager development program that would be conducted at their location 1.5 hours away. A few days after the interview when the recruiter followed up, I explained that I was not interested due to the bait and switch nature of the process. She wanted to turn the blame to me and had an attitude when I disagreed with their flawed process. Ultimately , this "manager " interview seemed like an underhanded attempt to recruit commission only salespeople. No wonder as to why those cubicles were empty.
