Applied online. I received a phone call from the assistant of the Financial Advisor about a week later asking a variety of questions from my past employment, and educational background. Following the call, a few days later I was asked to come in for an interview, which lasted about an hour. I was asked a series of question about my goals and future expectations. About a week later I was asked to meet the Financial Advisor where I was offered the job.
