      I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual

      Interview

      Initial Interviewer with a recruiter for Northwestern where you were asked to fill out a personality screening that consisted of a list of 100 words, picking out which ones best described you. The screening wasn't brought up in the first virtual meeting, and was used to go over resume and see if your experience, history, and character are a fit at Northwestern. At the second virtual meeting, the director of recruitment went over your personal history, resume, and job info very thoroughly, with the intent of going through a, "Mutual Fit" process between you and Northwestern Mutual, as well as making sure you are aware of what the job entails.
