      Houston, TX
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Houston, TX) in Jan 2021

      Interview

      Multiple interviews- started with basic questions and sent me home with homework of reaching out to friends and family about their insurance needs to see if me working with them would be something they’d be interested in - as a way to test if working in that industry was the right fit for me.
