I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual
Interview
Started with a tour of the office and then moved into the HR manages office. I had my series 7 so they were very eager to hire me. Still had to do the 10 surveys and the presentation but was offered the job. Job is all sales they try and make it glamorous, but they make you call your friends and family to sell them life insurance. I did very little with investments although I was the only intern with their investments licenses. I you want to be a life insurance sales man then it’s the job for you.

The interview process was not that professional. It was basically a sales pitch why you should join their company. They said that you didn't need any prior financial knowledge despite it being a finance role. They claimed that they will teach you everything you will need to be an expert which doesn't make sense when people like me are in school for a finance degree.
