I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in Jul 2011
Interview
Consisted of three face-2-face interviews. First with recruiter, second with a team leader, and third with the managing director. Overall simple questions, just looking for young, outgoing people who are willing to work hard. They like an emphasis on liking to work with others, meet new people, be flexible, not work behind a desk.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to go above and beyond the call of duty to get a job done?
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.
