Frequently asked questions

What is the IAG interview process like?

Most IAG roles involve an online application, one or more interviews (often starting with a phone or video screen, sometimes an AI-assessed recorded interview), and a final interview with the hiring manager. Behavioural questions using the STAR method feature heavily at every stage.

What questions does IAG ask in interviews?

Expect a mix of HR questions (why IAG, tell me about yourself), behavioural questions about teamwork, pressure and conflict, and insurance-specific scenarios. The full lists on this page cover the most common of each.

How do I prepare for a IAG interview?

Research IAG's strategy and values (Customer focus, Integrity, Respect, Excellence), prepare 6–8 STAR stories that evidence them, and rehearse out loud. Interview Buddy's AI coach runs realistic IAG-specific mock interviews and scores every answer.
