The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in May 2009
Interview
There is a four step interview process that literally takes four interviews to get hired. Throughout the process you are given a homework assignment to start networking so they can see if you are worth it to them. 100% commision based which scares away alot of potential employees. Long process but worth it in the end because they pay for certificates.
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.
