Entrevista
Levels of interview(generally):
*HR calls for phone screening and a short writing sample maybe be requested, then;
*interview with managers(1-3) and maybe some staff
if managers interview goes well then;
*Interview with the director or higher level manager
*Job offer with a call from HR or no offer and you will not hear back
*If offered and you accepted then background check and drug test
-I Applied Online then HR called for interview (if you apply to multiple positions you may get multiple interviews, don't be surprised if they encourage you to apply to other positions)
-Scheduled the interview - standard interview (they are specific about what they want)
-At the interview they may say "tell me about yourself" or they'll try to get to know you a bit.
-To get a job offer it helps a lot to know someone in the company, its almost impossible without knowing someone. They hire mainly from references within the company

Process was fairly simple once the interview was set. Met with 2 hiring managers and senior director. 3 Panel interview. Lasted 1 hour. Mostly behavioral questions and some easy technical questions like understanding of financial products . The competition is very high for these roles. Must be very engaging in the interview and show good personality traits. Once the interview was over, I received and offer in exactly 1 week. My advice would be to show genuine excitement and interest for the role. Ask follow up questions and establish a genuine connection if possible.

Emailed by HR for convenient time, spent exactly one hour with two managers- they were totally going thruough the motions. I had interviewed for a few other jobs, exactly the same questions off same song sheet. No response afterwards. More than 25% are hired from within according to manager, so I assume they have to through the motions, which is an unfortuante waste of my time. I think it is unfortunate HR cannot send a a nice email saying position is filled. Afterall, I spent the time to apply.

Entrevista
I applied online and was contacted to interview about two weeks later. After an initial chat with an HR person, we scheduled an interview in Rockville with three pretty senior people. I felt it was a great environment and the interview was well directed towards explaining what the job would be like, how my skills would work in that context, as well as seeing if I was a fit on a personal level. Although I did not get an offer, I felt good enough about the process and the people I met, as well as the work they described that I am still interested in FINRA.

It was actually hard to answer where I saw myself in ten years - I am often asked about five in interviews, but I really got stumped by this relatively innocuous question as applied to a longer timeframe.
