I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Nationwide in Aug 2021
Interview
I am currently a commercial lines underwriter and applied internally for another commercial underwriter position in a different department. I interviewed with a manager, who kept the interview very informal. He said that I would hear back about a decision one way or another.
Three weeks later, I didn't hear anything, and my Workday application closed. I emailed the manager, and he said that the position was offered to someone else with skills more in line with the role. All this for a lateral position.

Question 1
Q: Tell me about what you currently do.
Q: How do you balance competing priorities?
Pretty simple and straight forward and whole process was a little over a week. Initially submitted my resume and received a call from a recruiter who set up the interview. Went and interviewed with two managers of the Underwriting dept and it lasted about an hour. Received a call back within week and I accepted.

The process consisted of one telephone interview and one in person interview. The in person interview involved 2 managers. They took turns asking questions and were very friendly. The entire process took about 30 days. Regardless of what level you start at, you are placed in a training class for at least 2 weeks. The company does a lot for employees and overall morale..
