I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Chandler, AZ) in Oct 2008
Interview
Progressive was very thorough, I was kept aware of the progress of my interview process the entire time. All of my questions were answered promptly and I received a sufficient amount of follow up. All representatives I spoke with were positive and enthusiastic. Every Progressive person I spoke to made me feel very welcome and appreciated. At the end of the process, I received a survey to make comments or suggestions about the interview process. I felt that Progressive was honestly interested in my input and valued my opinions about the process and were very open to feedback. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Interview
Very impersonal and did not get to speak to someone in person everything was video recorded. It took a long time for them to finally decline my video interview. That's it

I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Tampa, FL)
Interview
The interview process is pretty strenuous. You do have an assessment that you have to take. Before you get the in person interview. After you do the assessment you do have virtual star question method questions that you have to answer. If you don’t do well with that you won’t get the final interview with the recruiter or hiring person. Definitely study STAR questions. They’re kinda hard. And then the final interview they do ask you a few star questions as well. You can use the ones from your virtual interview. It was really easy-going though. I did appreciate how easy the conversation was for the final interview.
