Two phone interviews for fit. Applied for an entry-level/training position; few if any technical questions. Mostly questions about academic background, interest in the field, etc. Two of these by phone, both were similar in these regards.

Question 1

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Argo Group

Quick process from start to finish. Just had 2 interviews before receiving offer from the hiring manager. The background check process wasn’t too bad either and was quick. The HR people were friendly and easy to get a hold of.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Argo Group
Interview
Their in-house recruiter reached out to me via LinkedIn. I did a phone interview with him that was pretty causal. I spoke with the hiring manager a week later . The process was straightforward.
