I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Austin, TX) in Feb 2021
Interview
If rate the interview process as easy. They ask traditional questions. Tell me about yourself. Why would you want to do financial planning? Most importantly they ask about your network. This position starts with YOUR own sphere of influence. They do not provide a territory or leads. If you can make it at this company skys the limit!
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.

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.
