I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2016
Interview
Pretty straight forward interview process. Two phone interviews, both consisting of basic "getting to know you" questions, as well as understanding your college activities/accomplishments. Last is an in person interview with the head recruiter and managing director where you present a powerpoint presentation on yourself.

Was told about the program and how I would need to get certified to sell life insurance in order to participate in the program. The interviewer was laid back and relaxed. It was a group interview.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Skokie, IL) in Mar 2026
Interview
It’s a three round interview, but it really more about getting to know you as a person no technicals. The second and third interview was the recruiter speaking on the job overview.
