The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Saint Louis, MO) in Apr 2010
Interview
Was contacted by the COO of Wells Fargo Advisors FiNet division. Almost entirely behavioral questions. Also asked about my computer skills - specifically Excel. This was important for my eventual job as I was doing primarily audit type projects of the various business units. No negotiation. The internship was paid - I earned 10 dollars per hour. Hours were not bad at all. I worked 7:00 - 4:30. This was largely because we were on central time in St. Louis. Internship was largely back office. There was no client interaction, but there was some interaction with the financial advisors, support staff, and business owners that Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network supports as an independent brokerage network.
