Our candidates report that AIG is looking for engineers who can do more than recite fundamentals — they want people who can explain their own work end-to-end and connect it to the business context. In the accepted-offer experience, the conversation kept circling back to recent projects, React internals, JWT, Socket.io, async JavaScript, and database design. That tells us the bar is less about obscure algorithms and more about whether you can defend implementation choices clearly and confidently when the interviewer keeps pressing into the details.
A recurring theme is that AIG seems to value structured communication under pressure. One candidate described a group exercise and an individual analysis task that were designed to surface collaboration, reasoning, and presentation style, while another mentioned a brain teaser and a database-design discussion that tested how calmly they could think aloud. We’ve seen that the strongest signal is not just technical correctness, but whether your explanation feels organized, practical, and easy to follow.
The other pattern is fit. Multiple candidates reported direct questions about why they applied to AIG, what they know about the company, and how their background aligns with the role. That means a generic motivation story will fall flat here. The candidates who seem to do best bring a clear, genuine reason for wanting AIG specifically, and can tie that to the kind of collaborative, client-facing problem solving the process keeps surfacing.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
Candidates submit an online application and answer competency- and motivation-based questions. For some applicants, this is the first filter before being invited to the next stage.
The assessment centre includes a group exercise, where candidates collaborate on a structured solution to a client-style problem, followed by an individual task that requires analyzing information independently and presenting reasoning. This stage appears to emphasize communication, teamwork, and structured thinking more than heavy technical coding.
The final interview focuses on motivations for applying to AIG, understanding of the company, and how the candidate's skills and experiences align with the role. Candidates should be prepared to explain why they want to join AIG in a genuine, specific way.
