Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Swiss Re.
Internship
first was a elitmus test, then we were shortlisted for interview, total three interviews were taken, 2 technical, 1 HR. The interview process was online. The first technical interview was more resume based. But after not passing through the first or second interview, we were not informed and ghosted.
- Can you tell me about your core skills?
Technical Intern
The first part of the interview involved an online assessment with questions covering operating systems, computer networks, data structures and algorithms, and aptitude. There were also two coding questions that were pretty straightforward and manageable. However, the other sections were very time-limited, which made the overall experience challenging.
- Aptitude questions
- Operating Systems questions
- Database questions
Intern
A week after I applied, an HR assistant called me to ask some important questions like salary expectations and start date. The first interview was a 30-minute Teams call with the hiring manager where I discussed my CV and answered behavioral questions. For the second interview round, I had to prepare and present a case study on-site, which lasted 90 minutes. After the presentation, I answered some simple questions and then some behavioral questions, which were straightforward if you think from the company's perspective. The next morning, I received a call confirming I got the job.
- Can you discuss your CV in relation to the job requirements?
- Do you have any behavioral questions for us?
- We would like you to prepare and present a case study.
