1. Online Application Start by submitting an online application through the Swiss Re careers website or other job portals. This application usually includes your resume, cover letter, and responses to basic application questions. 2. Initial Screening HR Screening Call: If your application is shortlisted, an HR representative will contact you for an initial screening. This call usually focuses on your background, experience, and interest in the role and Swiss Re. They may also ask some general behavioral questions to understand your motivations and fit. 3. Online Assessments Depending on the role, you might be required to complete online assessments. These could include psychometric tests, cognitive ability tests, or technical tests to evaluate specific skills relevant to the position. 4. First Round Interview Technical or Competency-Based Interview: The first round is typically conducted with a hiring manager or team member. This interview may focus on your technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and how your experience aligns with the job requirements. You can expect questions about past projects, industry knowledge, and hypothetical scenarios relevant to the role. Case Studies or Business Scenarios: Some roles, especially in underwriting, actuarial, or finance, may require you to solve a case study or business problem. You will be asked to present your solution and thought process. 5. Second Round Interview Panel Interview or Assessment Center: The second round may involve a panel interview with multiple interviewers, including senior managers and team leaders. They may ask more in-depth questions about your skills, experience, and how you would handle specific situations. Group Exercises or Role Plays: If invited to an assessment center, you may participate in group exercises, role-plays, or presentations to assess your teamwork, leadership, and communication skills. 6. Final Interview Interview with Senior Management: The final interview is often with senior management or executive-level personnel. This stage is more strategic and focuses on cultural fit, long-term career goals, and alignment with Swiss Re’s values and mission.

The interview took place through the HireVue platform. It included both motivational (e.g. why are you interested in the programme) and competency-based questions (e.g. tell me about a time when you persuaded someone).

Overall very basic interview, i was expecting more technical or job related questions , however none of them were asked. In general , the interview went ok, i replied all their questions.
