I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AIG (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2011
Interview
Had face-to-face interviews with two managers. One was very professional and friendly. The other seemed agitated and implied that though he had the final decision, he was deferring the first manager's decision.
Phone call with employee in the group. Much more of a conversation than question answer back and forth. Conversation flowed well talking about the market and where prices etc. were headed.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at AIG in Oct 2011
Interview
I had an inside referral who walked my resume to H.R. I initially was called in to have an interview with H.R. and another Regional Manager in a different department. I then interviewed with the hiring manager. This took several months as there was not an opening at that time but they queued me to slide in when one opened up.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There weren't any of the typical HR type questions about weaknesses or strengths it was more conversational.
