The #1 Financial Services Internship in the U.S.

Northwestern Mutual Among Vault’s Top Ten Internships in U.S. for 19th Straight Year

Each year, thousands of college students learn from some of the most successful financial advisors in the U.S. through Northwestern Mutual’s nationally-recognized internship program, which was named by Vault.com the #1 internship for students seeking careers in the financial services industry.

Northwestern Mutual ranks #5 overall across all industries on Vault’s Top Ten Internships for 2015, and is the only company to be recognized for 19 straight years.

“Our internship program is a cornerstone of our recruiting efforts and one of the key drivers behind our long track record of preparing the best and brightest students for success in the financial services industry,” said Michael Van Grinsven, Northwestern Mutual’s field internship director. “We take great pride in the program and we’re happy that it remains a valuable experience for our interns.”

“The demand for financial planning has never been higher. And that demand, in turn, has opened up career opportunities for current college students to learn from the best in the business and one that prepares them to hit the ground running post-graduation.” said Van Grinsven.

Northwestern Mutual’s internship program started in 1967, and since that time more than 44,000 students have graduated from the program.

Interested applicants can visit Northwestern Mutual’s website or contact a nearby Northwestern Mutual office to learn more about available internship opportunities.
