I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Tri Cities, WA) in Sep 2023
Interview
During the interview the interviewers were kind but I felt pressured during the interview to sell, following the first interview they asked for a list of friends and family be provided. The interview felt disingenuous and I strongly suggest others interview with other companies or take a different internship than with northwestern mutual.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: What are some challenges you've faced and how did you address these challenges?
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.
