Insurance runs on judgment under uncertainty.

Insurance runs on judgment under uncertainty. Prelim assesses actuarial reasoning, underwriting decisions, and claims handling — with the compliance and audit trail carriers require.

The hiring problem

Underwriting is judgment under incomplete information. Score it that way.

Insurance carriers hire for a skill that's genuinely hard to see in an interview: making a sound call with imperfect data, consistently, under time pressure. Prelim's underwriting and claims scenarios put candidates in exactly that position, so you're measuring the actual competency the seat requires rather than how confidently someone describes their process.

Challenge

Underwriting judgment is hard to interview for — candidates could describe the right process without demonstrating it under realistic ambiguity.

Approach

Prelim scored a live underwriting scenario with incomplete information, benchmarked against how experienced underwriters at the carrier actually decided.
