The Northwestern Mutual Financial Network offers a personalized approach to providing customized financial solutions tailored to each client's individual needs. Financial representatives provide needs-based analysis and financial solutions to help ensure a client's needs are met at every life stage.

Financial representatives work closely with clients to develop customized solutions that meet long-term financial goals and objectives. They offer exclusive access to insurance products from a top-rated company, Northwestern Mutual, as well as disability income insurance, and an array of quality financial products and services available through Network Partners.

The foremost goal of the Network is to help make each client's vision a reality. We are committed to helping our financial representatives achieve their visions, as well. As a financial representative, your potential is as unlimited as your energy, commitment and drive. Your hard work determines your rewards.

By establishing enduring relationships with clients, you develop your skills in fact finding and referral prospecting. These skills are at the core of helping your clients achieve their goals and your mission. With your commitment, the assistance of our Network specialists and the support of your local network office, your vision can become reality.

Local Network Office
We know that building your own business is difficult without help. As a financial representative, you will be in business for yourself, but not by yourself.

Your local network office will provide you with support in your training and development, so you don't have to do it alone. With Northwestern Mutual's 150 years of history, we understand the skills and knowledge needed to succeed.

You'll have assistance in developing your business and marketing plans, extensive training and coaching from certified trainers. You'll also have access to the specialists who have the expertise to work with you and your clients in a variety of areas.

Mutual Selection Process
Our recruitment and selection philosophy centers on the idea of mutual discovery. Our Mutual process gives you the chance to explore the financial representative career and see how it fits with your personal, professional and financial goals.

Your local office will take you through an interview process to assist you in making an appropriate, informed decision about a career as a financial representative.

Financial representatives with the Northwestern Mutual Financial Network have the unique opportunity to create their own destiny and determine the impact they have on the lives of their clients, families and in their communities.

Successful financial representatives experience tremendous pride and satisfaction in building a practice from the ground up. Their success is not a factor of luck or chance; it's the result of a productive work ethic, strong relationship skills and a level of professionalism second to none.

Your Clientele
As a financial representative, you will draw your clients from one or more of the following markets: Personal Needs Analysis Market, Small Business Market or Estate Planning Market. Your goal is to discover each client's needs and goals and help map a path to meet them. You will:

• Build your business to the level of success to which you aspire.
• Achieve financial independence with a rewarding career that can offer flexibility for family, friends and leisure-time activities.
