I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2011
Interview
Extensive interview Process. First an initial phone call interview. Then pre-work before a second phone interview. Then additional pre-work before a final in person interview. Overall it took about a month and was an easy process as long as you are willing to put in the work to complete the pre-work activities.

Question 1
Personality assessment in the early part of the process
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.
I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Greenville, SC)
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.
