Well constructed interview, friendly team with great explanations of the role and what is expected. Interview was with two managers. Feedback was provided post interview and have encouraged me to apply again.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at QBE (New York, NY) in Mar 2026
Interview
4 virtual interviews with peers and leaderships. Very easy converstations around experience and getting to know you as a person. The process went quickly from application to initial interview. I believe it took around 2 weeks.
Short and simple. HR followed by hiring manager who discussed their needs for the role and their expectations of the candidate. The process was much like my previous role. Be sure to know company history and recent trends/developments.
