First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Milliman.
Actuarial Intern
After submitting my resume, I had a 1-way interview where they asked easy behavioral questions that I could record and submit. Then there was an optional meet and greet, followed by a 3-hour interview with 3 parts. In each part, I met with 2 employees who asked me questions about my resume, behavioral questions, and questions about high school. Finally, there was a background check.
- What was the best part of your high school experience?
- What was the worst part of your high school experience?
- What was the best part of your college experience?
Actuarial Intern
The process started with a screening and a meet and greet, followed by a long call with three different groups. It was all done remotely. The interviewers seemed friendly, but the questions were surprisingly focused on high school topics.
- Could you describe your high school activities?
Actuarial Analyst
The interview process included an aptitude round lasting 2 hours with average difficulty. This was followed by a technical interview focusing on concepts of reserves, bonuses, and project appraisal. The final interview assessed both technical skills and personality. Both rounds were conducted by cooperative interviewers, and the final interviewers were particularly helpful, guiding me through answers even when I struggled. The people involved were very friendly.
- Focus on concepts of reserves.
- Focus on concepts of bonuses.
- Focus on concepts of reinsurance.
