Very structured and open-ended. Do your homework on the company, the position, and be prepared to know why you want to be a financial advisor and why you want to work at Schwab specifically.
Three rounds of interviews. First was a phone call with HR mostly asking about my resume. Then a zoom interview with two associates in the Academy. Lasted about 45 minutes. Behavioral questions as well as technical.

Why Schwab/why financial sector?
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Charles Schwab nel mese di feb 2017
Colloquio
Took about one month, broke into 3 main interviews. They were mainly behavioral based and all on the phone. The first was an initial call where I got more info on the position, then it was a video interview with two FC's from a branch-mainly behavioral questions, this was much more intense than the first interview. About a week later I had the final interview with a branch manager and then got an offer. All in all it took about one month to complete the entire process.
