So, I left one insurance company to start working at another. The salary and benefits seemed similar, but a little lower at the new job. Then, I find out that the company is being taken over by yet another insurance company. I am not sure if I made the right move, because I have been employed by 3 companies within a 1 month time period.

Should I be concerned? What would you do?

Wouldn't worry me too much. My wife worked at a company that sold each year back and forth between an American corporation and a European corporation like clockwork and nothing changed

That's good to know! This is definitely a first for me.

I wouldn't worry until you have something to worry about. You won't be able to do anything to stop it regardless. Hang in there and try not to stress.

Thank you! I will keep my hands & feet inside the car for my safety! :-)

There isn't much you can do about it now anyway, unless you want to add a 4th company to the list. Acquisitions are common and not the same as intentionally leaving one company to join another. I really wouldn't worry about it.

Thank you! I really don't want to doubt or second guess my decision to join a different company.

Don’t panic and stay calm

HR is scheduling the interviews without checking time with me. One interview was scheduled and then it was rescheduled to a different time at last minute. I wasn't available at that time so I mailed the HR for a different slot. They again scheduled it for a later date without checking the time with me.
