b***s 发帖数: 75 | 1 Just got an on-site interview from a P&C consulting company and the schedule
includes a 45-min case study. This is my first on-site and I have no idea
what the case study would be. Any comments? Suggestions? Thanks!!! |

g**********r 发帖数: 229 | 4 i was once in a case study interview with deloitte. It was not P&C
consulting but pension i guess. but the case was simply a question: do you
think the claims will increase or decrease? tell me your answer and why? for
the claims, i remember it referred to workers comp. Can't remember the
details..Good luck! It is not mai ken xi anyway, so shouldn't be that hard. |

g**********r 发帖数: 229 | 6 i told her my answer. then she asked me to justify it. i was given a piece
of paper where i can write down things and draw a diagram. she would keep
asking why this why that. and would give me hint and suggestions. oh, she
gave me ten minutes alone to think about the case. well, i didn't get the
job in the end so didn't really know if i did it right way or not. Good luck
to you.

b***s 发帖数: 75 | 7 Thanks so much for the detail explanation! Now I have more clue about the
process of case study at least. Hopefully I could get it but this is my
first on-site anyway. I will take it easy.
luck

b***s 发帖数: 75 | 8 Update-
I came back from the interview yesterday. The case study was not as tough as
I thought. I was given a piece of paper with a problem to calculate current
premium based on previous years data. It was not very hard but it did take
me sometime to figure it out.It was a small company though. Maybe it is not
a typical case study~ |

something from exam C?

b***s 发帖数: 75 | 12 Well, I have not taken C yet so I am not sure if it is from C. I took a
course in casualty though. I used the loss ratio method. I trended the
growth of loss ratio based on the growth during the past three years putting
more weight on more recent years. And then use the equation to show that
the premium should equal the sum of expected losses and expenses. I think
the book of rate making and reserving in casualty, the text book for Exam 5
maybe, correct me if I am wrong, describes the solutions |
