I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in Jan 2011
Interview
Interview process from my experience clearly seemed to be a waste of time. I only took the 1st interview which was a phone interview. it lasted for an hr and a half. after the phone interview the HR sent me a huge package where i had to fill out 100 potential clients to build up my "clientele" after that i was suppose to go i n for a 1:1 interview and also a presentation. Which i decided not to follow up onto the process since it seemed like such a waste of time
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give me a time where you had trouble in an assignment with a group.
Very professional and provide a deep background and understanding of the company. The recruiters are very friendly and help guide you through the interview process. Is a multi-step interview process including surveys and questionaries.
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.

Question 1
Who is someone in your current network that could benefit from this?
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.
