What sector are you interviewing in? Government health (GHSC), Commercial H&B, or Retirement? I used to work for Mercer in government for years and would be able to tell you a lot more about the culture in that sector. The interview process is pretty standard across sectors with some giving an excel test but most not. It will likely be all behavioral questions. Typically, there are two people interviewing you during each half hour segment of the 4 total hours and each segment is responsible for asking questions about 2-3 competencies. If it’s GHSC that you’re interviewing with, I could possibly find the exact competencies.
