I applied in-person. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Mariner Investment Group (New York, NY) in May 2013
Interview
Very friendly interviewer, no difficult questions and straightforward. I did not have to answer any questions outside of walking him through my resume. I would recommend having this question down to a science when applying to this company.
