I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Milwaukee, WI) in Mar 2013
Interview
Campus interview then on site interview. Not really that hard just know your resume and your accomplishments and you'll be fine. Don't expect them to ask any technical questions. As long as you know your stuff you will do fine. They ask alot of behavioral questions and like to get a feel for how you solve problems or would act in a certain situation.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in Feb 2025
Interview
They were very quick to want to talk to me, having two virtual interviews and a speedy process. They were more focused on the connections that I had than the experience that I would gain over the summer.

I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Melville, NY)
