I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual in Aug 2024
Interview
Long process for a 100% commission based role. Make it seem extremely achievable and don't emphasize the amount of investing you will have to do in your first year. Let alone first 6 months.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have any savings? Are you willing to invest in yourself.
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 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.

Question 1
Who is someone in your current network that could benefit from this?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual
Interview
Fortunately it was a decent introduction call.
Unfortunately the recruiter did not know the mission statement for the organization and did not look it up to share it.
Was also informed there were still to be four interviews in the interview process.
