I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in Jan 2011
Interview
I was approached by a friend of mine that had recently finished the internship process. He invited me to come in to the office for an interview if I was ever interested in a job. I called and set up a date and came in for an interview. I was told I had to come in for a second one after and did so. Second interview I was shown the day of an intern and what we would be doing.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They ask you to generate about 60 leads as your first task and then you can come back in as the last part of your hiring.
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.
