How should I prepare for a interview with fortune 500 investment firm?
The company manages life insurance, mutual funds and ETF's.
The closest thing I know to investment is crypto and ONLY stick to BTC, ETH and XMR, All other crypto's are scams.

go down to jewlery store, buy a couple of silver coins then resell them to another jewelry store, then refer to your trading w/ coins & BTC as your commodities trading endeavors, perfect markets and arbitration interests.

drop any discussion of ETH cuz efferiumz

with reference to XMR and other scams dont ever mention crypto shit just talk about your interest in exploring emerging market segments.

speak with supreme confidence, never arrogance, and you will come across as someone they want on their team cuz curiosity, youth && potential bitchen that may result from the principle of locality and not old wrinkley balls and grey neckbeard.

you will WAGMI

I was buying BTC in highschool when it was around $3000, and have been stacking little by little. Tbh I wish I invested more but I was young and dumb and didnt really think about the value in investing, and I wanted to spend it on my girlfriend and having a good time.

yes i made 10.k in april, and am on track for another 5 fig month in june (currently at 7k commission, not including any bonuses)


it is not easy though. my first year here i made 44k. i struggled and had to learn my own way without any help from management. it is possible though. long hours and hard work, you can change your entire financial situation at a job any retard can do. its actually better the more retarded you are, I think that was what my problem was, too much over thinking, selling cars is really simple, show up, and out preform your peers. do this every day for a few months and you will be making over 10k/ month AT LEAST

also there is no HR i get to say nigger and talk about jews, its great truly. virtually zero women too.

it's like >>60541773 said. you'll be selling life insurance products on a quota. they will make you pitch this bullshit to family and friends. if you don't make the sales numbers you will be fired.

barrier to entry is a thing.

barrier to entry to selling cars: low. in 10 years you will still be selling cars. at best you will be a manager of the car salesmen.

barrier to entry to "selljng life insurance": not as low as selling cars. in 10 years you could be leading a trading desk at goldman sachs.

either position is going to lean hard on your ambition, cunning and besting your peers.

Doesnt matter, it's a waste of both their times

I'm just being realistic, they want degrees to flash to boomers, your track record doesn't matter

Maybe Im john stupid.
But Isn't life insurance and car sales nearly the same field? Wouldn't the car dealership fire me if I didn't meet the sales quota?
>>60541818
Your saying work harder than your peers, I can respect that.

>>60541824
I thought the same thing which is why im asking for advice. Since I dont have any college education and am practically homeless by their terms. But I want to know how I can stand out from other applicants since I dont have any college degree. Programming is one of my hobbies and I had thought to mention it.

In sales, they make money off the salesmen, not the sales. They hire literally everyone and 1 in 1000 is a sociopath that makes 100k and everyone gets fired or works for less than minimum wage

I cannot stress how big of a waste of time this is

probably, but they won't expect you to sell a car to your family and friends. when i say 'they will ask you to sell to your family and friends,' this isn't an exaggeration or a joke. they might even ask you to provide their name and phone numbers during training.

also consider that car salesmen are scummy but buying a car is a necessary part of life. life insurance salesmen are scummy and life insurance is a fucking scam. i dont work in sales but if i did, i would feel a hell of a lot better selling cars than life insurance. if you want a career in sales, being able to sell cars is probably a better skill to have. it's face-to-face so you get to practice physical presence skills: appearance, eye contact, demeanor, etc., whereas life insurance is smile-and-dial cold call bullshit.

put another way, and just to put this into perspective: this job sucks so much cock that they are blindly cold mailing you an invitation to apply. how many interview offers for car salesmen have you received in the mail?

my managers are all millionaires...

>>60541835
its impossible to get fired at a car dealership for performance. think about it. they(managers) get paid on the bottom line. you selling 4 cars a month, with no bonus paid out..... my GM wishes he could have 150 4 car guys, in stead of paying out massive bonuses to the top 1/2 performers.

>>60541839
this anon will never make it, or perhaps i am a sociopath. most likely the former...
