What happens in an AIG HireVue interview?
In a HireVue interview, you’ll record yourself answering questions.
Those questions might be shown to you as a couple of lines of text or they might be displayed as a pre-recorded video by someone at AIG asking you that question.
Then, you’ll get around 30 seconds to prepare your answer and around two minutes to answer.
The number of questions varies, so be ready to answer anything from 2 to 5 questions.
You can answer on your cell phone, laptop, or desktop computer – as long as it has a camera.
The questions asked will be mostly behavioral ones, so make sure you are brushed up on how to answer those. The best way to answer them is via the STAR method – if you aren’t familiar with how to ace every question using that method, check out the video below.
You also want to be aware of AIG’s corporate values. You want to answer the behavioral questions on HireVue through the lens of those values. This will make the hiring manager’s life very easy as they are looking for those values in every person they evaluate.
You can find AIG’s corporate values on its website. Also take a look at their website to familiarize yourself with AIG’s history and corporate goals, because knowledge of those can be extremely helpful in an interview.
When you go for an interview at AIG, you can expect to be asked questions about your experience in the insurance industry, your knowledge of AIG products, and your ability to provide excellent customer service. To help you prepare, we’ve compiled a list of sample AIG interview questions and answers.
Cold calling is a common sales technique used by insurance agents to find new clients. The hiring manager may ask this question to see if you’re willing to do what it takes to succeed in the role. If you have experience making cold calls, share your previous success stories with the interviewer. If you don’t have any experience, explain that you are eager to learn how to make successful cold calls.
Example: “I am interested in working at AIG because I have always admired the company’s commitment to innovation. In my research, I learned that AIG has been on Fortune’s list of ‘World’s Most Admired Companies’ for over 20 years. This tells me that the company values creativity and encourages employees to think outside the box. I believe this is important as we continue to develop new products and services.”
The interview process at AIG is generally pretty streamlined, with most candidates reporting positive experiences. However, some candidates have found the process to be lengthy and tedious, with vague questions being asked. Additionally, some interviewers may not be well-versed in the subject matter. Overall, though, the majority of candidates report having positive experiences with the interview process at AIG.
Example: “In my last position, I disagreed with one of my colleagues about which marketing strategy we should use for our client. Rather than immediately disagreeing with him, I asked questions to better understand his point of view. After hearing what he had to say, I realized that there were some benefits to using his strategy. However, I still thought that my strategy would be more effective in reaching our target audience.
Real estate analyst Interview – Real Estate
Length of ProcessLess than 1 month
InterviewApplied online. Few weeks later contacted to take modelling test. Fairly simple, with debt but no waterfall. Phone call to review modelling test a week later, followed by a written case study. Did not pass and was ghosted. Later heard there was a poor culture with subpar pay, and ok exit opps so in the end not too dissapointed.
Interview QuestionsThere were no difficult interview questions as the phone call was just to review the model and describe my background. But the case study asked to review brokerage research reports and summarize a macro view and an asset class in 1 hour which seemed too short.
