      Financial Advisor Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Des Moines, IA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Des Moines, IA) in May 2023

      Interview

      You first interviewed with a manager there who was actually in your position at one point. Talked about the position and what you would do. They then wanted you to fill out this survey and get your feelings on the role and if you would be a good fit. Then you would interview again and discuss the survey.

      I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual

      Interview

      I went through three rounds. You have an initial screening, a one hour interview with an advisor, then meet with a partner in-person if possible. Very detailed, and they bring up cultural test results and financial projections.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual

      Interview

      Fortunately it was a decent introduction call. Unfortunately the recruiter did not know the mission statement for the organization and did not look it up to share it. Was also informed there were still to be four interviews in the interview process.
