3! And how many interviews would that have been from? 15 or so? or even more? This seems a lot more competitive than it already is!

Don't know that particular info. But I hazard a guess and say around 40-50.

Thanks

How are you guys going to prepare for interviews (particularly those going for actuarial)?

Oh loooool. My b. Heard the wrong day. Ahahahahaha

how long will they expect you to talk for? how many words should u prep roughly for each response.

obliviousninja · Nov 22, 2014

20-25 minute interview. They will ask like maybe 6-8 questions, so speak for 2-3 minutes for each question

dyjs · Nov 23, 2014

How long is there between the interview date and when the offers come out?

KamiKara · Nov 23, 2014

Any insight on what questions they usually ask? Less than 2 days to go!

obliviousninja · Nov 23, 2014

Revise your application. They might a question or two based on stuff you wrote.

omni16 · Nov 26, 2014

When do conditional offers come out again?

omni16 · Nov 26, 2014

Was it the 11th of december?

omni16 · Dec 10, 2014

Just to confirm, offers are out tomorrow right?

*sigh*

the closer we get the more i realise how little of a chance i have. anyway fingers crossed

dyjs · Dec 11, 2014

which streams are you all waiitng for?

best of luck to everyone tho!!!

KamiKara · Dec 11, 2014

Fingers crossed for CIS! 3 spots is such a pain

obliviousninja · Dec 11, 2014

I assumed you get into bis as the worse case scenario as most people who got cis interview got into bis last year

KamiKara · Dec 11, 2014

Yea I've been told that a few did get BIS when they applied for CIS. Are they still given out today if that's what happens?
