I applied through university. I interviewed at Allianz

I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Allianz (Ann Arbor, MI) in Dec 2012
Interview
The behavioral interview started with all the basic stuff: tell us about yourself, whether you have conflict with your teammates and how do you resolve it; what do you do when you feel overwhelmed, etc. Particularly, they ask why you choose life insurance over casualty insurance. Be sure to prepare for that and give some impressive answers. Also prepare questions for them. Final remark: interviewers were one HR and one senior actuary.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I am not fully prepared for why life/pension over casualty which is probably the major reason why I was turned down (could also be because of my visa type...). I think they expect to hear your clear determination and devotion into life insurance as an actuary.
I applied online. I interviewed at Allianz in Aug 2025
Interview
I had a phone screen with a recruiter, which was pleasant and covered basic resume history and exam track. I then had two thirty minute interviews with senior actuaries. One was pleasant, one was more confrontational and technical. Prepare links to your exam studying, technical applications to a product they offer, and how various market changes could affect products.
