I applied online. I interviewed at Sompo International Holdings in Apr 2026
Interview
The interview process was relatively straightforward, consisting of one HR phone screen and two back-to-back interviews with counsel. The conversations focused on the internship program and my prior experience. Overall, it seemed they were looking for a candidate who could potentially transition into a full-time role after graduation.
I applied online. I interviewed at Sompo International Holdings (London, England) in May 2025
Interview
Standard application process. First was a short call with a recruiter to determine suitability, then a short maths based assessment, after which I was invited to attend the assessment centre. There was a short, introductory Teams meeting beforehand. On the day, there were individual interviews (with two senior employees and one with a HR representative), a few group activities and numerous discussions/icebreakers. It wasn’t hugely technical/insurance focused - it was mostly your interests, previous skills and applicable experience. Everyone was very friendly (the other graduates and the interviewers) and accommodating. The only downside was that they did not provide any feedback afterwards which was a little disappointing as it was quite a small group and there was only one assessment day.
