      Pension Administrator Interview

      Mar 16, 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Mercer

      Interview

      The first interview was a phone interview. It was quite rude because they even didn't send me an email or a call to manage a suitable time for me, so I did't prepare at all. The HR just called me and started to ask questions, and I can see that even she was not familiar with the role... The second day another HR told me that I passed and invited me to the second interview, the second interview was an online interview, they will send you questions that you need to finish in an hour and half, which included calcultion, writing and a summary.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Mercer

      Interview

      I was messaged by a Mercer recruiter on LinkedIn regarding an opportunity to which I replied I was very interested. Following a quick phone call I was instructed to apply for the role on the mercer workday website. I was invited to a video interview a couple of days later, the video interview consisted of 7 questions with 20 seconds to prepare for the answers and up to 4 minutes to explain and provide an answer. The final stage of the interview process was a 1 hour zoom interview with 2 managers, questions were more in the line of "describe a time where you had to ....." I found out a day later of the outcome of the interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The video interview consisted of 7 questions, all of which were technical pensions questions. Differences between DC and DB schemes. Differences between final salary and care scheme. How is a trivial commutation calculated? The formula to work out PCLS. What is an unauthorised payment? What is the LTA and what happens if it is exceeded? What would you do if a CETV quote has took over 3 month's to process? The above are the questions I can remember however they were not all of the questions I was asked, there were more.
