I applied online. I interviewed at Hiscox (London, England) in Sept 2024
Interview
4 rounds - 1st round is with the hiring manager and a senior underwriter (competency questions), the 2nd is a watson glaser online assessment, 3rd is with an 2 other personnel from other departments (competency and technical questions) and the final round is with the divisional head. Unfortunately I didn't make it passed the 3rd round. You definitely need to practice before taking the online assessment. The interviewers were really friendly and professional.
