Behavioral Technical
So, the interview process started with a joint phone screen with two interviewers. Then, about two weeks later, there were three back-to-back conversations with three different people. Everyone was really nice and polite, and the conversations were easy, mostly focused on my background and education. It was a really good experience overall.

The interview process involved a 30-minute on-campus meeting with both the hiring manager and an HR representative. During this meeting, they asked basic behavioral questions.

It was like 4 back-to-back one-on-one interviews, each 45 minutes with directors and VPs. Super typical for actuarial roles - really gotta know your resume and transcript cold 'cause they'll hit you with something and expect you to know it. Then, we were split into groups for a case study analysis.
