Candidate-reported interview process

The internship interview process was pretty extensive. It started with a phone interview, then moved on to several interviews with different hiring managers. I had about 5 interviews in total. They weren't looking for expert knowledge, just a grasp of basic Excel functions and some understanding of insurance or reinsurance. It took about a month to get the offer.

Had a preliminary chat with the recruiting staff at Axis for the Deputy Active Underwriter role. It went pretty well, even though the recruiter was late, and they confirmed I had all the necessary skill sets. The feedback was very positive, and they indicated I'd move to the next stage. But then, nothing more. No further communication, and a couple of months later, I got an automatic rejection without any explanation.

I started with a quick 15 minute chat with a really nice HR person. Then, I went in person for a 40 minute interview where we went over my CV and asked STAR-type questions.
