Interview
I applied through college or university and the process took 1 week - interviewed at AIG.
Interview Details – Applied via campus recruiting. Had a first round interview with two senior managers. One on the P&C side and the other on the Life side. 30min each, so lasted 1 hour in total. All behavioral questions (why our company? why actuary? why chose this school?)
Straightforward, but difficult. It was amazing. Just expect some tough questions, and expect that the panel will not be so lenient with you. Prepare well, be strong, and the job might be yours
The interview with AIG for the actuarial summer internship was smooth and well organized, with mostly behavioral questions. The interviewers I met were welcoming, professional, and interested in my background.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself. Walk me through your resume.
There was an initial video interview for 1st round. Then a 1 hour 30 minute interview with 3 actuaries where they asked questions relating to your prior experiences. Mainly behavior questions. They want to know how you respond to challenges and they also want to know how you explain projects and tasks you have worked on.
