First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Intact.
Actuarial Intern
The interview process consisted of two parts. First, there was a technical and probability question. Then, they asked about my previous experience, preferred side of actuarial science (PC or L), and the type and size of data I've worked with.
- Could you explain the concept of variance to someone without a university-level math background?
- Tell me about your past experiences.
- Do you prefer working on the property or casualty side of actuarial science?
Actuarial
The interview was tough, harder than usual for the industry but manageable. It included typical questions like 'why P&C' and 'why Intact', plus some thought-provoking ones such as estimating the cost of cleaning all windows in the Greater Toronto Area. The interview lasted just under an hour, but the vibe was really nice and relaxed, making it not too difficult overall.
- What is the estimated cost for cleaning all the windows in Toronto?
Actuarial Analyst
It was a video interview, with 2 interviewers, and lasted about 30 minutes. They asked around 10 questions, mostly standard ones. I had to solve a probability question right then and there. I heard from someone else that interviewed later and they got basically the same questions.
- What challenges do you foresee for the P&C industry in the coming year, and also in the next 3-5 years?
- What led you to apply to Intact?
- Could you solve this probability question for us now?
