I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Melville, NY) in Feb 2014
Interview
The general questions were asked. Asked where you see yourself working and what you expected to be in 10 years down the road. Overall very simple nothing out of the ordinary.

Question 1
When did you have to deal with failure and how did you overcome it?
Very professional and provide a deep background and understanding of the company. The recruiters are very friendly and help guide you through the interview process. Is a multi-step interview process including surveys and questionaries.
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.
