Total 2 rounds of interview. First one over the phone, about 30 minutes of casual conversation. Second in person at the office. During the second interview, I have been required to do a small case study on the spot, which made the second round of interview a bit longer (2.5 hours). Overall it was a very quick process as the decision was made in 3 days from the beginning to the end.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself.
What do you know about insurance industry?
The first interview was with someone from Human Resources, then with the head of department. Got a reply a couple hours after my second interview. Very fast process. The first interview was online, while the second was at the offices.

Question 1
how to use some excel formulas; how I would act in certain circumstances; if I was a fruit, which one would I be (very random).
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zurich Insurance (North Sydney) in Aug 2025
Interview
1. Psychometrics
2. Light Coding Questions (45 min)
3. One Way Interview (6 Questions)
Straight forward process. Psychometrics were akin to CBA's, two simple coding questions in your language of choice and around 6 one way interview questions with a 3 minute timer and a redo each.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A question asking "Why Zurich Insurance?" culture alignment and what you admire about their organization.
The recruiter was not fully present during the interview and never responded to my follow-up email about the process. Additionally, I was asked to provide personal documentation in the first interview, which felt inappropriate given how early it was in the process. Very poor candidate experience
