Northwestern Mutual Financial Services Representative Interview

Posted Jan 7, 2013

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Richmond, VA Jan 2011 – Reviewed Jan 7, 2013

Interview Details – I went through three intensive interviews before I was offered a contract. The first interview is very personal and they really get to know you as a person and a potential employee. The second interview is more focused on allowing you to get to know the company, the culture, and the specific office. Finally, the third interview is a presentation that you develop and give to the senior leadership of that office. This is by far the hardest part of the interview process, as you must develop a powerpoint presentation and basically "sell yourself" to the company. All the questions asked in all three of the interviews were pretty standard and fairly easy to answer. Make sure you do your research on Northwestern before going into the first interview!

Interview Question – The most difficult thing for me was doing the powerpoint presentation and selling myself to the company. They will ask you many questions after the presentation, so be prepared to better explain yourself after you make the presentation. Dress to impress.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – There is no salary, just a stipend, so the contract negotiation did not really exist.

Other Details - I applied through a recruiter and the process took 4+ weeks.
