Welcome to Aon Careers

01/10

At Aon, we are working with global clients across every industry.
After speaking with some of your new team members, you have come to the realization that there are many interesting topics that you could learn more about.
How would you learn more about these awesome new topics?

I would look for relevant online training courses at Aon

I would ask the team if I can sit in on extra meetings

I would investigate the projects that are underway on the team and ask to get involved

I would sit down with my new team members who have recently joined and learn what worked well for them

I would learn as I go and as needed

02/10

At Aon we often work in teams to deliver our client projects. It’s day two and you’re up!
You’ve been asked to join a meeting with the other colleagues to brainstorm a solution on a complex project.
How would you help with the meeting?

I would suggest that the group breaks into small teams and that the project breaks down into smaller tasks

I would suggest that everyone joins together and shares their ideas

I would find out what everyone’s strengths are and if anyone has experience with anything similar

I would ask for 20 minutes of quiet time, so I can find time to come to a solution on my own

I would listen and observe as the team considers the solution

03/10

Our clients at Aon can be in multiple locations, and we need to communicate with them regularly.
You have just met with your manager, where a change in policy was mentioned that will have a big impact on the clients your team supports. Your manager asks you to share this message with your clients, even though this change in policy has been largely publicized, as you’ve already read about it in the news.
How would you share the message?

I would write a template email outlining the changes in detail and send to all clients

I would write individual emails out to each client, describing how this change will affect the relationship we have with each of them

Since they’ve probably also heard about it already, I would spend the time preparing for any questions they may have

I would write an article on my professional networking site describing the changes and how it’ll affect the industry for all my clients who follow my posts

I would wait to see if and how others on the team intend to communicate this

04/10

At Aon we deal with lots of client data. You are settling in well to your new role with Aon and have been given the opportunity to be part of a new project.
The analytics team has been extremely busy recently and has asked your team to help with the analysis.
What would you do?

I would volunteer right away! I’ve been waiting to get into the numbers and to build out some cool trends

Pass on this one, please! I would email them and ask if there is another way I could help

I’ve got some free time, why not give it a try? I’m pretty sure it’ll be interesting and, at the very least I’ll learn something new

I’m not excited by this task, but maybe there’s someone on my team who would enjoy it. I’ll make sure they’ve seen the email, and inquire whether they can help the analytics team

I would politely decline as I’m not interested in gaining experience in analytics and this may stop me being able to help on another project

05/10

At Aon, we often find ourselves deliberating across the teams to find the best solutions for our clients. Also, we like to debate topics we feel passionate about, such as lunch!
It’s been a busy morning, but now it’s time for lunch! You’re really craving this new deli around the corner; however, the rest of the team wants pizza.
What do you do?

I would make a pros and cons list of the new deli!

I would charm them with my delicious description of their new sub

I would go alone, but make sure to waft the sandwich as I sit around them when I return

I would explain that if they come with me, they can join in on the 2-for-1 deal, bargain!

If the rest of the team wants pizza, then I will go with them

06/10

Alongside the interesting work we do at Aon there is always some less exciting, but necessary, tasks that need to be completed
It's Tuesday, time for some admin work. You need to make sure your team documents are all saved in the right places and named correctly.
How would you do this?

Headphones in, I would find a quiet corner and crank this out

Maybe someone else could do this, I have more important things to work on for clients

It’s quite an easy task, I would do this at my desk and enjoy the company of my colleagues at the same time

I would push this to Friday, it’s more of an end of the week task anyways

I would do what I can but if there are some documents missing I'm sure I'll find them if someone needs them

07/10

At Aon we must move at a very high pace to provide the best service possible for our clients, but we must make sure that this does not damage our integrity and quality of service.
Your manager asks you to proofread a report from their manager. This is a very important report which needs to be sent to the client ASAP, so they have asked for you to do one final check before sending. As you’re reading through, you notice a minor error but correcting it would lead to a delay.
What would you do?

I wouldn’t mention it, it’s such a minor mistake that I’m sure the client wouldn’t even notice it and this needs to be sent ASAP

I would bring this to the attention of my manager, who would then correct the minor error

I’m sure my manager’s manager is aware of it, I wouldn’t want them to feel bad by pointing out a mistake

I would correct the mistake myself without making a big deal of it; however, it may lead to a delay in sending to the client

I would let the client know that there may be a small delay, correct the mistake and review the report once more

08/10

At Aon we are constantly competing against the top organizations, and we must always provide our absolute best to clients.
Your team is on a call with a client who intends to buy a quick solution for a simple problem they have been experiencing over the past couple of years; however, you come to realize that there is a better, long-term solution available which you’ve recently read about.
What do you do during the call?

I’m new to the team and don’t want to overstep so I would go along with what is being proposed

I would speak out during the call, recommending the long-term solution to the client

A long-term solution isn’t what they requested, so I would stay quiet

I would stay quiet during the call, but once the meeting concludes, I’d prepare a presentation for the client during our next call

I would ask a few clarifying questions to confirm my thoughts before recommending the longer-term solution

09/10

Working at Aon can be a high-pace, high-pressure environment, which also generates a lot of excitement and energy. You’re starting to feel the heat from a client.
It's Wednesday, you’ve been working on an end-of-year review due by the end of the week. You’ve nearly completed the report but you’re waiting on some input from the analytics team. The client emails, pressing for it's completion ASAP and asking you to send over what you have now, even though it’s not complete.
What do you do?

I would respond to the client immediately, apologizing for the delay and confirming to them that I will get this done as quick as possible

I’m confident in my ability to get it done on time. I will email the client reminding them of the agreed deadline and assuring them they will receive the report when it’s finished

I would feel pressured, I’d reach out to my colleagues, hoping they have time to help me out

I would speak with my manager and inform her that if we don’t obtain the work from analytics that it could fall behind schedule and ask how best to move forward

I would offer to provide them with high level summary of the documents being prepared and reassure them that the report will be delivered to them within the agreed upon timelines

10/10

At Aon we pride ourselves on our flexible working lifestyle. But this can sometimes lead to working later than expected.
It’s 6pm on Friday, you’ve made it through your first week! Some of the team are still working but you’re about to join your colleagues for dinner. As you are closing your laptop you receive an email from a client.
What would you do?

I would not respond, they probably aren’t expecting a response this evening, I’ll get back to them first thing Monday morning

I would quickly review the email and make a note to revisit it over the weekend

I would unpack my things, and get to work on what the client needs, I can catch up with everyone afterwards

I would contact the client and ask how urgent this task is before deciding on my next actions

I would ask if someone on the team could cover this for me, as I’m excited to spend the evening getting to know my new colleagues
