      Actuarial Consultant Interview

      Jul 17, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Toronto, ON
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Mercer (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      I was referred by an employee who got me in touch with someone for an informal meeting over coffee. That initial "meet and greet" helped me see that Mercer could be a good fit for me and kick-started the interview process. A few weeks later we arranged for more formal interviews, where I met with six individuals (two at a time). Meeting with so many people at different stages of their careers helped me a get a sense of the culture at Mercer. From there, we worked together to define a role that worked for both of us.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked what it was that I was most looking to get out of coming to Mercer.
