I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Aviva Canada (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2016
Interview
Met with the hiring manager. Casual interview and questions on resume and experiences
The manager tells you about the role and what is expected and what project you will be working on if you get the job.
Also gives time during the end to ask any questions.
There was a big emphasis on whether you could talk/hold a conversation. No technical questions, just hypotheticals/behaviourals that required some quick thinking. Interviewer was friendly and seemed to wish to support the candidate. They were also curious about career goals.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Aviva Canada (Scarborough, ON) in Feb 2017
Interview
Hiring process took 2 weeks. Applied through campus career network. One on one interview with hiring manager. Hiring manager simply went through my resume and transcript. Bits of technical questions were asked, but I understood the material pretty well to explain it. I didn't get an offer but it was a pleasant experience.
