looking for advice - insurance fixed income analyst

Hey all, not sure what thread this should be under so please move if I'm in the wrong spot.

I was wondering if anyone out there works in fixed income/interest rate risk analysis in the insurance industry. I was a former energy trader/scheduler and am certified in general securities, derivatives, and options (Canada).

I trade my own stock and options account that has done quite well... my personal futures trading has been better but I'm doing so-so there

I have an interview coming up and would really appreciate any advice regarding their expectations and possible questions.

If you have experience in energy trading/scheduling, why in the world would you look at an insurance fixed income analyst position?
 
I recently had to move and unfortunately its very much blue collar with pretty limited opportunities. I have to explain to most people what a scheduler is (it exists in a very limited capacity here). I thought an analyst position sounds interesting too, maybe not overly glamorous but hopefully challenging.

Thanks for the reply. I have a pretty solid grasp of the insurance business model, in regards to rate risk and asset/liability matching... that sort of info. I was just hoping that someone in a similar position could shed some light on what type of questions I may be looking at.
