I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Downers Grove, IL) in Aug 2023
Interview
Very easy. They just asked about who you were, your goals, motivations, and if you can pick up a phone. It seemed like a casual conversation rather than an interview.
There were four or five interviews, if you count the meeting with my future mentor. There were also a few personality assessments. Lots of paperwork. The finance industry is tightly regulated.
The first interview was easygoing and went fairly well. We talked a little on myself and what northwestern was all about. Because they wanted to see how I could fit in to their team and what I would bring.

Interview
The process was smooth and straight forward. A lot of behavioral based questions, but relaxed and low stress. First phase is a phone screening followed by a teams or in person meeting.
