Interviewed Apr 2010 in Springfield, MA (took 2 days)
Two stage interview. One on one with the HR guy, then a follow up interview with the department managers. Interview questions were basic- where do you see yourself in 5 years? how does your education apply to this career? etc.

Interviewed Feb 2008 in Dallas, TX (took 1 week)
Very short and straight forward.
Had to take a "personality test" that was primarily questions like "sometimes I feel hopeless" and asked if you agreed or disagreed. Yep.
There were two interviews, one with the recruiter and one with the general agent. Traditional interview with simple questions.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Springfield, MA (took 3 days)
Even though I was referred to the hiring manager by a mutual acquaintance, I was still asked to log onto the Mass Mutual web site and register myself into their system. Then from this site you have to select what job you are applying for and attach your resume. I just found all this odd. Not hard at all, just odd.
I received a phone call from the HR rep who proceeded to screen me with standard interview questions: Are you currently working. Why are you looking to leave? Explain some of your current responsibilities etc etc. A follow up phone interview was scheduled with the Basis Team manager and their lead Basis Admin. Started off with one on one with the manager. She was very nice. Gave a quick review of their environment and what they were looking for. When the Lead joined the call (also very nice) he proceeded to ask some technical questions. It wasn't a grilling by any means. The tone of the interview was very cordial. Following this 2nd interview, the manager said she would speak to HR to set up a time for me to come visit the office and meet the rest of the team. No offer has been made, and i have yet to hear from HR.

Interviewed May 2010 in Center Valley, PA (took 3 days)
I was looking around in the industry and interviewed with MassMutual, Guardian, NYL, and Northwestern just to see what companies was the best. The interview processes are all the same, and I picked Northwestern out of the four because I thought they had the best training program.

Interviewed May 2008 in San Francisco, CA (took a day)
this is position to become a financial adviser. It's mostly selling life insurance, disability and long term care and investments. You can also do fee planning.. There is no salary. Everything is commission. There is a lot of support to start your own business which is basically what you are doing. They want to make sure you are good at sales, smart, persistent and hard working.

Interviewed Oct 2009 (took 3 weeks)
I met with 2 well experienced individuals and my impression was that they were / would be very good to work with. Struck me as having an agreeable management style and not wolf in lamb's clothing type of approach. Maybe the change in executive management has been fruitful in making corporate ethics more prevalent in their culture.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Fort Worth, TX (took a day)
Applied online and interviewed for a few minutes with a representative. That same representative asked me to come in to MassMutual's office here locally and talk further. After everything was complete, I was asked to think about the position, look over the material presented, and if I thought it would be a good fit I could continue on with the hiring process.
