I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Middleton, WI) in Mar 2012
Interview
I acquired this internship through the managing director and head recruiter for the network office. I began by setting an initial meeting and then continued to meet with the MP and other employees. From there, I was hired on the spot.

Question 1
How do you deal with a system with no base salaries?
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.
