Interviewed Dec 2010 (took 4 days)
The IQ/intelligence test is similar to the GMAT process: there is an analytical skills test and a reading comprehension test.
HR phone screen was fairly standard.
Interview consisted of 1:1 interviews with 3 different people. Standard behavioural questions that included why you want to work for Manulife, which courses did you like best from the MBA, questions on how I approached cases. The 3 people were very high up in the organization and were fine.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took 2 days)
I interviewed for a summer position with Manulife Financial in Toronto. The positions are extremely tough to come by as they recruit primarily on an "as needed" basis for their service groups. I emailed various alumni and other contacts endlessly until I was passed along to HR and given an opportunity to interview. The interview process wasn't too bad, mainly determining that I was a hard worker and the right "fit".

Negotiation Details
No room for negotiation, they have a pool of candidates to choose from and 2 positions were available in the group, so they had their pick of the litter.
Other Details
I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Personality Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Waterloo, ON (Canada) (took 3+ weeks)
The first interview was a phone interview where they check for fit. If you clear that, they call you in for a face-to-face interview at their Waterloo location. If you clear that, you have to go to for a second face-to-face interview followed by a networking session.
