Application Process

At Zurich we are a team of individuals. We welcome ALL differences, together they make us better as a whole. Our interview process is designed to reduce bias and promote a fair and inclusive experience for you, where you can show us your best self. You can find the four assessment stages below.

Your first step will be to complete an online application form. This includes some eligibility questions which will help us to check you meet the requirements of the programme.

Step 2. Online Assessment Stage

Our Online Assessment is a strengths-based experience which explores behaviours and working with numbers in a rich, immersive way. This stage will give you a realistic insight into what it’s like to work for Zurich and introduce you to our culture.

You’ll be presented with fictitious scenarios that relate to our work, so you can gain a better understanding of the positive impact you can have as a graduate, both now and in the future. This stage will also help you to learn more about the work you’ll be doing if you join our scheme.

Step 3. Job Simulation and Video Interview Stage

If you’ve been successful in the previous step, you may be invited to the next stage of our application process, our Job Simulation and Video Interview.

This strengths-based online assessment is a realistic digital job simulation that will give you a great opportunity to let us learn more about you as an individual. You’ll be introduced to a fictitious project, representative of the work we do, and will be given a series of scenarios.

You’ll be asked to imagine you are working in the role you’ve applied for and will be asked to complete different types of assessments that include video and written responses.

Step 4. Final Assessment

If you’ve been selected, you may be invited to an online or in person final assessment and interview.

Do make sure you prepare by revisiting the details of the programme you have applied for and researching our company, including services and products we provide. This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about Zurich and to meet various representatives from the business.

Can I use AI in my application?

We really want people to be their authentic selves throughout the application process. We ask that you don't use AI in order to allow a fairer process for all.
