I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Swiss Re in May 2016
Interview
I was contacted by actuary who is also VP. She spoke at a slow pace. Started by introducing this position as well as relationship among departments, and asked me some general questions. Went through my resume first, followed by some behavioral questions. Left about 7 min for me to ask questions. I prepared 4 questions, but she spoke too slow that I only asked 2 and then time was out. Still waiting for response tho.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Swiss Re (Zürich) in Jan 2025
Interview
There were two rounds of interviews, which were a recorded interview and an on-site interview. For the recorded one, I should've answered 4-5 questions, which I found quite generic. The second interview was more technical and two interviewers attended. They asked me about my knowledge in the field and explained the tasks. I answered pretty well for most of the questions but didn't get an offer in the end. I assume this was because I needed more training for the role compared to other candidates.
The have conducted two round
The First round is apptitude
The second round is technical round and face to face process.
The interview process typically begins with a pre-interview phase, where the candidate is contacted by the interviewer or their representative to schedule the interview. Once the interview is confirmed, the candidate researches the company, role, and industry to prepare for the conversation.
During the interview, the process usually unfolds in several rounds. The first round is often an introductory or screening round, where the interviewer assesses the candidate's basic qualifications, experience, and fit for the role. This round may involve a brief presentation or a series of questions designed to gauge the candidate's background and skills.
