Interview
For my Actuarial Analyst role at Zurich Insurance, I went through three face-to-face interviews instead of the usual two because they wanted to reassess me. There wasn’t any phone screening every stage was in person and got more technical as it went. The interviews had a strong focus on actuarial and statistical concepts, and the questions were tricky, testing my problem solving skills, technical knowledge, and how I apply analytical thinking to real situations. A lot of them went deep, asking me to clearly explain methods, interpret data, and think logically under time pressure.
