Interviewed Sep 2011 (took 4 weeks)
The process was long and exhaustive. The scheduling was not organized and HR wasn't up front about pre-interview briefing. I was interviewed for a position I didn't apply for, which caught me off-guard, then the follow up interviews were again done on various different positions. Basically they will pass you around to interview for position they thought would fit you. OK, except that I would appreciate a word of warning. There was a lot of missed communication as to what the agenda of the was. On the third invitation, I was told that I was to come for salary offering. To my shock, I was interviewed again for 3.5 hours. Obviously there is a lack of internal communication. Interview questions were standard for the most part except the interview by the HR Manager, in which I was asked a series of questions that were not really related to the profession. I felt like I was being intimidated. There are better ways to assess one's behavioral response.

Interviewed Feb 2010 (took a day)
Met with the HR person in Trevose who also arranged for the UK based HR decisionmaker to join via teleconference. Lots of technical questions about underwriting and workflow processes. There seemed to be an answer in her mind that she was looking for about what things were most important in underwriting and, having quite a bit of experience, I didn't seem to answer it IMO. Very vague as to direction and structure of the interview.
