I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GEICO (Silver Spring, MD)
Interview
Met with recruiter at on campus career fair. Applied for the MDP program that week and was contacted the following week via email for an interview. After the interview was set up, the recruiter contacted me for an initial screening which end up being a full interview which took about 45 minutes - 1 hour. The salary discussed was very low - 40, 000 year with the opportunity to make more upon successful completion of the program. You will need to meet program prerequisites based on courses they feel are important. You have 1 year to complete courses if selected for the program. In all honesty I think the salary is too low for what they require of you while you are in the program.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The recruiter asked me over 20 behavioral based questions which included: Leadership Strength, Leadership weakness, What can you bring to the position if selected, What do you like the most/least about being a leader, Why are you interested in the MDP program, What do you know about the program?, Why do you want to work in Claims/Auto/ Sales? and why. Explain a time in which you had to deal with a difficult customer, In addition to this, they ask you about your academic background, courses you have taken, and they give you a very detailed overview of the program and what is expected of you.
