I applied online. I interviewed at Sun Life (Atlanta, GA) in Oct 2022
Interview
The hiring process was very fast and smooth. There are 2 rounds of interviews. Each round includes two 30 minutes interviews with 2 different actuaries. They are so nice, supportive, and they always want to listen my stories, experiences, and what I have been going through that shapes who I am right now. Recruiter contacted so fast after interviews. For me, they contacted me after 2 days for the first round and 1 day after the final round. They are very nice.
