Northwestern Mutual has opened up the opportunity to discover what is most important to me; helping people. Through having face to face conversations with people everyday, we are pushed into the professional lifestyle of full-time financial advisors and are held to the same standard.
What I wish was different
I wish there was less emphasis on self driven work because it can be very tough to rely financially on others' ability to take a meeting & I wish the stipend was higher as well.
Advice
If you want to build your own calendar and are self driven, this is for you! Be sure to emphasize the importance of calendar management and balancing a work life balance!
