I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Manulife (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2023
Interview
The process was smooth. Managers were chill. Got two interviews. First HR and then technical. I found both interviews average and the questions were straight forward from the job description. Take the JD seriously and prepare for interview accordingly.

Question 1
How would you gather requirement from stakeholder confused about the new changes
2nd round video interview with one team manager and one team member. Asked about what is plain vanilla bond, bond feature, etc. more technical questions than behavioral questions. The interview was around 30 minutes.
I applied online. I interviewed at Manulife (Kwun Tong, Kowloon City) in Jan 2026
Interview
The JD is deceptive.
They’re actually looking for an insurance agent if you see something like “ Meet individual sales KPIs, and premium revenue objectives”/ “ client-specific”.
To be fair people there are nice and imply their real intentions in the first interview, but why even bother to go, right?
