Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your favorite package/function about each of the technical skills on your resume?
First introductory phone call was more challenging than most other phone calls I had with other companies. Asked conceptual questions about mortgage rates. The questions about personality and background were typical interview questions but the conceptual actuarial questions were difficult and they didn’t provide much feedback to your answers to explain if you were right or wrong and why.
