A recruiter reached out to set up an initial phone interview. Then we conducted a 10-20 minutes phone interview on the set time and date. She moved me onto the virtual interview. Another recruiter reached out to provide me with all the details I needed to prepare for the interview. The information provided was very educational and helpful but I only had one day to prepare. The hiring manager was very professional and he gave me the opportunities and time to elaborate or clarify my answers. I was told I would get an Yes/No answer within a week. However, on the same day of the virtual interview, I received an offer. The overall experience was very smooth and pleasant.

A lot of STAR method questions during the phone screening. Did not pass , although I felt like my answers were good but not great I guess. Anyone know how they rate?

Question 1
I think one was tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult task?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Orlando, FL) in Mar 2026
Interview
Applied at the end of January, by second week of Feb I had phone interview, they moved me to another time since i wasn't able to start for March, but May (which initially i thought HR was not going to follow up and were going to discard my application). Went to second interview in person first week of March and HR called me the same day they wanted me. Process was long because of me, but if it wasn't like that, it would have only took 3-4 weeks. They contact you pretty fast and give you a bunch of resources to study for the interview, they even give you feedback on the initial screening phone interview at the beginning so you go prepared. They ask you STAR and Non-Star questions so be prepared to answer both. They probably asked me around 3 of each. They realized I like trading, so they asked for my knowledge about the financial markets but questions were not difficult, but don't worry about this, they asked because I put it on my resume literally. Interview lasted a 1hr and 40 min
Transparent. Screening interviewer was upfront that it was an intensive call center role and employees had a minimum 2-year (usually 3) placement before being able to transfer to a different role.
