Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Sun Life (Toronto, ON)
Colloquio
Interviewed by the director and an associate actuary for an entry level position. The whole 30 minute interview (which ended up being ~45 mins) was technical questions. I think they threw in a couple of behavioural questions at the end just because. Personally I felt that the interview went pretty well, I thought I answered most of the questions right even though I felt so much pressure because of the sheer amount of technical questions. I even got a good vibe from the interviews and I thought for sure I would move to the next round. But then I was ghosted for 3 weeks. I was finally contacted by HR saying they weren't moving forward with my candidacy (go figures) and that I should provide my availability so they can call me and give me any feedback they might have. I did reply with my availability but I never heard back after that. I would have loved some feedback as I felt strongly about the interview even though it was unnecessarily difficult for an entry level (new grad) position.

Colloquio
Rigorous 2 round interview, had some technical parts and some personality parts. Some questions are based on previous projects and they may ask for more explanations. Overall medium difficulty but is also dependant on who you get.
the interviewer is nice and arrange a good time slot for me based on my request. During the interview, we mostly use Cantonese and she asked the question about the future career you plan
