I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chubb in Jan 2019
Interview
It started with a phone interview that lasted around 10 minutes. Behavioural questions, mostly. Then, I met with multiple team leaders in person. 30 mins with the first two persons, 30 mins with more senior managers. It was a mix of typical questions ( what should you work on, etc. ) and weirder questions ( one of us is an alien, who is it and why ).
The interview process consisted of three rounds, including conversations with team members and leadership. Discussions focused on experience, technical knowledge, problem-solving abilities, communication skills, and overall fit for the role and organization.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you faced a challenge at work and how you handled it.
My interview with Chubb gave me a strong understanding of both the company’s culture and the expectations of the underwriting role.
We discussed how Chubb operates as a global leader in insurance, with a strong emphasis on risk assessment, client relationships, and long-term financial stability. The team highlighted that underwriting at Chubb is not just technical, but also relationship-driven. Success in the role requires analytical thinking, communication skills, and the ability to balance risk with business opportunity.
3 interviews in total - 1 screening and 2 in-person. Not very technical. Salary for a first-time position is great (associate role). 30-minute interview. 2-3 people will be attending the meeting alongside you.
