I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Northbrook, IL) in Feb 2011
Interview
2 Phone interviews, and 1 day of behavioral interviews. However, now they include case studies and sometimes prepared presentations as part of the interview process. As always, time was allotted to ask questions, so be sure that you have prepared questions in advance. It might help to ask about how the company tries to balance profitability with competitiveness.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you had to solve a problem differently than usual
The first round is a video record interview which is short and easy. The second round is a technical interview with two senior actuaries. The problems are a bit hard and not really related to actuarial knowledge.
I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2019
Interview
Two fairly painless interviews. The first was 1 hour, and the second was three hours. I had four interviewers (two pairs of two) for the hour-long interview, and then four more interviewers for the second interview. The interviews were well-structured and quite down-to-earth. There was no pre-recorded video interview, which I appreciated-- everything was in person or through a video call.
