I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at New York Life in Nov 2012
Interview
I only got to the first round - a phone interview. I was interviewed by a young actuarial analyst who was in the internship program 2 years ago. It was mostly background checking questions and did not get technical until we got to a part where I explained one of my past project. I could not quite recall the details of the codes... guess that was a mark down.

What is your greatest professional accomplishment?
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (Grand Rapids, MI) in Oct 2012
Interview
Multiple interview process. First Interview was mostly spent talking about previous job experiences in the financial industry. Second Interview was further discussion about the company, the position, and the compensation structure. There was also plenty of time for question and answer in both interviews. Interviews were very comfortable and more of a conversation back and forth rather than the interviewer asking all of the questions.
