Received an offer for a phone interview 4 days after applying online for the Financial Advisor position. The interviewer immediately asked basic questions regarding my education and job experience.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you were faced with a challenge and how did you respond?
I was put through a phone Interview. I was denied by the recruiter. I attended a Career Event and was then reconsidered for the position. I didn't feel like I was a good fit for their culture. The advisors seemed to be somewhat close minded.
