I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The Hartford in Oct 2013
Interview
After reaching out to them, I had an initial interview on the phone. It lasted for about 30 minutes, and it was relatively straightforward. It was mostly resume based questions. I heard back a week later, and I got invited to the company in two weeks. It was a four hour group interview. I met and interviewed with various students in the program. Then, we ate lunch, and did a group project and had to present it. It required critical thinking and clean presentation.

I applied online. I interviewed at The Hartford (Hartford, CT)
Interview
I applied online and got a call a couple weeks later. They wanted me to fly to CT to in-person interview. The interview was a five hour multifaceted process with 5 other applicants. I interviewed for 30 minutes each with 4 people (it was sort of like "speed dating") I was then asked to analyze some graphs/charts and write a business email based on the information I gathered. Following this, we had a Q and A with some previous interns who took on a full time position later. Finally, we (the applicants) had to solve a case study in a group. We were monitored on how we solved it- I'm guessing to see how we handle teamwork settings. We then had to present our solution to 2 actuaries.
