Interview
First I was asked to complete a HireVue interview (unlimited amount of time to record yourself, very relaxed and easy to complete). Then I was invited to do a 45 minute virtual interview with two actuaries which was kind of like a case study.

Interview
First round is a strange "virtual interview" with an AI agent/prompts. Questions asked were very basic, and along with the job description, suggests the office focuses more on basic statistical methodology rather than modern methods.
