I have been working at Academy Mortgage full-time
Pros
No company is perfect, but Academy does a lot of things right... more so than any company I've ever worked! It's hard to do the right things but those things keep the company strong and ultimately benefit our customers!
Cons
Change can be hard... but always necessary in the mortgage inducstry!
Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Academy Mortgage in July 2011.
Interview
Academy recruited me for several months. They were very accommodating of my needs and desires at the time. I was impressed with the calls from upper management and from the area support staff. I have not been disappointed.
