      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      they try to sell you on why to work there, not interviewing you yourself. Seemed sketchy from the start. For the brave to take on, not my cup of tea

      I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual

      Interview

      Straightforward process, interviewed with them on campus. They provided the information I needed. I decided to not move ahead with the interview process as it did not align with my goals, but the interviewers were cordial and professional.

      I interviewed at Northwestern Mutual

      Interview

      Felt like they were selling me something the whole time. Super easy to talk to, but something just felt off the whole time. Had multiple phases of them explaining why they're so perfect and great to work for (massive selection bias in some of their numbers)
