I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Milwaukee, WI) in Mar 2012
Interview
Pretty legit, interviewer seemed real easy going and nice. Me and the recruiter met at a college career fair, and then asked if she could interview next week on campus. Once I knocked that interview out they gave me the "Project 10". They had called about a week later to see how everything was going and kind of touch base with me, and then set up a final interview at my choosing. Had the final interview and it was pretty standard, office was very nice. Then they gave me an offer.

Interview
Interviews were very easy. Didn't feel like there was any competition. Met with a recruiter, director of growth, and didn't go through with final interview. Needed to fill out referrals sheet and conduct interviews that concluded with asking if they would be interested in my service.

Interview
Teams call with the director of recruiting who was herself a skilled salesperson and had her script memorized to a tee. This was clearly a commission sales job where the candidate would have to use their own connections to generate their own leads. But, the product isn't terrible or outside my wheelhouse so I was interested in continuing with the process. I then failed their outdated "personality test", the type which has been debunked as completely ineffective, so the director of recruiting told me my candidacy was "on pause".
