Job Description

We offer a paid and educational financial planning internship, a full-time offer upon graduation, and financial advising licensing. We are the McClure Financial Group and a part of Northwestern Mutual, a 166 year old comprehensive financial advising company based in Milwaukee. We offer our interns the opportunity to begin their education and Financial Advising practice before they graduate.
The Company:
This is the best company in the country to partner with for comprehensive financial advising. Northwestern Mutual Central Illinois has an internship focused on education of our interns, gratitude for their hard work, and a passion for helping others through financial planning. Northwestern Mutual is a stable and successful Fortune 500 firm, ranked Top 5 U.S. Investment Broker-Dealers, rated with an A++ financial strength rating, AAA, Aaa, and AA+—the highest financial strength ratings awarded to life insurers from all four major rating agencies, and are the No. 1 ranked insurance company for consumer experience (Nerdwallet, 2022).
  • Our internship team's mission is to educate and grow the next top Financial Advisors in the state.
  • We believe in helping interns create their own financial practices.
The Position :
Our Financial Advising Interns begin in our College Financial Representative role--the advisor title is earned after gaining investment licensing.
  • We offer a flexible and hybrid work schedule. There are 3 starting semesters for our internship program: Spring, Summer, and Fall. This is an ongoing internship and ends in a full-time offer upon graduation.
  • We sponsor our interns for their Life & Health licensing to become Financial Representatives, and with effort and time, we sponsor their investment licensing (SIE, Series 6, Series 63) to become College Financial Advisors.
Requirements:
  • We are looking for local Central Illinois students only (we do not hire students who are only going to college in Central Illinois but live in another area) who want to start building their knowledge and financial advising practice.
Responsibilities:
  • Our team teaches our interns everything they need to know about building a financial practice, financial planning, and the services we offer.
We support our interns in studying for their licensing exams, and pair them with veteran advisors so that they can shadow and learn directly from the best.
The Location:
The McClure Financial Group has offices throughout central Illinois. Our offices are in downtown Peoria, Bloomington, and Champaign, Illinois. Why Should You Apply?
  • We are flexible and support a strong work/life balance—that means working from home when needed, full access to the office and our technology, and variable hours each week dependent on your school schedule and deadlines.
  • We offer fulltime roles upon graduation—that means your own Financial Advising practice. If that's not a perfect fit, roles in marketing, accounting, talent acquisition, and support staff are available.
  • We have fun—join us for football games and basketball games, at the country club for our monthly luncheon, for coffee chats and happy hours, and for trips to places like Florida, Milwaukee, and Chicago.
  • We offer a proven plan to build a successful career—we teach our interns with real-world experiences, and offer the same rate of pay as full time advisors while they're still in school.
