      Actuarial Interview

      Dec 10, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Pittsburgh, PA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Nationwide (Pittsburgh, PA) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I had one interview at an actuarial career fair at Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh, PA. The interview was very laid back, not intimidating at all. The women was very friendly and didn't ask questions that you wouldn't expect. She was very receptive of what you had to say and put her input in as well, almost like just having a discussion with her. I then followed up with her a couple of weeks later to see where they were in the hiring process. She told me that she would put a word in for me for their last position open. I then received a call about a week later to set up a phone interview for the next day. Again, it was laid back, more as a discussion about the answers to your questions. Not intimidating and very friendly. He kept in touch with me about where they were at in their hiring process afterwards and when they would have decisions made about the position and such.
