Aon Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details Lasted two months. Met with 5 people.

Interview Details First to enter an online application with a CV and a cover letter. If successful, then you would be invited to an online Situational Judgment Test (SJT) that should take around 45 minutes. Then there will also be a first-round, second-round interview and as assessment centre based in London.

Interview Details This agency offers a mix of industrial/cleaning jobs, and of low-skilled admin jobs. They will regularly advertise for permanent positions in pension admin, with salaries in the £14K-£16K range without pension experience, and in the £18K-£25K range with pension experience.
When you apply, you are called back by one of their staff (Sonya, Tracey) who ask you questions to check that you are computer literate and have GCSEs in Maths and English. Even if you’re already in work and your qualifications are on your CV. Then they ask you to take a half day off to attend an interview with them. At the interview, they act again as if they did not believe that what you put on your CV was true (but do not make you sit tests, which would be the easiest way of demonstrating that you do have the required skills). Once they’re satisfied, they tell you that you can start at the company as soon as possible, there will be no need for an interview with them! They disappear off to fetch and a contract, and lo and behold! come back with an agency contract and a timesheet! They then insist that you are only going to temp for 13 weeks, after which the job will become permanent (fat chance). Furthermore, the payrate is only £7.50ph gross, way below £14K pa. If you tell them you have to think about it, they will keep badgering you on the phone again, and if you answer one of their calls, surprise!!! the payrate has gone down to £6.50ph gross, which doesn’t even come close to £14K pa, and they have work for you (temping) for 6 months at least!
The company in question is AON. I had a housemate once who had left a permanent pension admin job in London to move to Bristol, and had signed up to temp at AON: 6 months later, she was still temping.

Reason for Declining – I was looking for a permanent job.

Interview Details After failing to connect during scheduled phone interview, I was finally contacted by an HR rep. Another two weeks went by until I was told BY EMAIL that I was not being brought in for an in-person interview.

Interview Details I previously worked at this employer as my first job in the insurance industry. They were hiring for a client service position which was an internal support role. There was to be no face to face client interaction. I interviewed with 2 different people in one day and then sat with a person currently in the role to understand what his job duties were.

Reason for Declining – I ended up taking an offer with another firm.

Interview Details I had to provide a detailed review of how I can bring business to the table. My interview was based on having worked with the executives in charge at another company. I did not have a format interview with Aon's HR department. I submitted a business plan for review.

Interview Details I went through a staffing company. I had to come in for 2 interviews since the person directly managing me wasn't in the office for the first interview. There were 4 people interviewing me in the first interview because they would all be on the team I would be supporting.

Negotiation Details – I went through a staffing agency, so they did the negotiation for me.

Interview Details -Whole process took 2 month.
-1 HR phone interview, 1 phone interview with global head, 1 onsite with global head and 2 other people in the company.

-HR interview was easy, just went through resume, simple behaviour
-phone with global head went for 1.5hour. went though resume, asked about previous intern experience. interests. why this position. market views, some statistical questions: copula, 2008 mortgage crisis. limitations of copula.
-onsite interview was standard corporate interview booklet quesions.
started with lots of behaviour questions like: why this job, how to solve conflict, what is stop-loss, how to work with others.

technical questions were about Access, dealing with data, manipulate data in access.

Interview Details Did a phone screen

Got a call back a week later to meet with RMD, SVP, VP, AVP and ASII all in one day. Individual interviews. It was supposed to be behavioral based but Interviewers gave me the ability to lead the interview.
