The interview began with introductions, where the interviewers explained their roles at Aviva and the structure of the actuarial team. They were friendly and created a welcoming environment, which helped ease my nerves.
The first part of the interview focused on my understanding of the role and the insurance industry. They asked why I wanted to join Aviva and what drew me to the actuarial profession. I highlighted my enthusiasm for solving complex problems and my interest in applying mathematical skills to real-world financial risks.
