I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual
Interview
So far the company seems to put a lot of time and effort into making sure that they potential candidates know what they are getting into. I think that the exercise they give potential new financial reps is quite helpful so you can get a feel for what you will be doing on a daily basis.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were not any trick questions in the interview. They were straight forward and clear.
There were four or five interviews, if you count the meeting with my future mentor. There were also a few personality assessments. Lots of paperwork. The finance industry is tightly regulated.
The first interview was easygoing and went fairly well. We talked a little on myself and what northwestern was all about. Because they wanted to see how I could fit in to their team and what I would bring.
I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Greenville, SC)
Interview
The process was smooth and straight forward. A lot of behavioral based questions, but relaxed and low stress. First phase is a phone screening followed by a teams or in person meeting.
