I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (New York, NY) in May 2016
Interview
I had 2 interviews after reaching out to the recruiter I met at my school. During the first one I answered standard questions and scenarios. I was then assigned 10 market surveys to be completed by the next interview. I was offered the job upon completion of the surveys and a successful 2nd interview. This was exactly the line of work I was looking to do so I was not scared away by the commission based pay
The process is several interviews long. The process begins with a recruiter asking basic questions, filling out forms, and another internal interview. The last interview is with the district manager.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Jackson, TN) in Dec 2018
Interview
It was very laid back and easy. I could to tell immediately that there was going to be a great work environment. I also was able to clearly understand goals and requirements of the job.
