I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Washington, DC)
Interview
Quite simple, it took me about 10 minutes to complete. Basically was told that it is more of a sales role, and ultimately that didn't fit with my goals. recruiter was super nice though.

I applied online. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (San Diego, CA) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview process is smooth, they get back to you relatively quickly. I completed the first 3 rounds within a week but they did reschedule my 4th interview after confirming. Nothing bad to say yet honestly.
I went through three rounds. You have an initial screening, a one hour interview with an advisor, then meet with a partner in-person if possible. Very detailed, and they bring up cultural test results and financial projections.
