I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Northbrook, IL) in Aug 2015
Interview
Turned in resume at University. They liked it and called me back the next day for a phone interview. Set up the first interview 2 weeks later. If the interview went well, there would be an on campus interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One specific interviewer has this question and tends to use it a lot so I'm told:
You own 2 restaurants. The cumulative amount of customers in the first 3 weeks are as follows:
Restaurant A: 100, 200, 1500
Restaurant B: 250, 750, 1500
You are about to open a 3rd restaurant . Predict what amount of customers the first week will hold. Explain how you came up with that answer. explain any assumptions you use in your analysis
total two rounds. HR call and manager interview. Everything is smooth and questions based on your résumé. Not too much behavior question. Interviewers are nice and patient. Got an offer within a week.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate in Sep 2024
Interview
First I was asked to complete a HireVue interview (unlimited amount of time to record yourself, very relaxed and easy to complete). Then I was invited to do a 45 minute virtual interview with two actuaries which was kind of like a case study.

Question 1
Tell us about yourself and why do you want to work for Allstate
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Los Angeles, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
First round is a strange "virtual interview" with an AI agent/prompts. Questions asked were very basic, and along with the job description, suggests the office focuses more on basic statistical methodology rather than modern methods.
