I applied online. I interviewed at PURE Insurance (New York, NY)
Interview
2 months of multiple interviews. They seem to really want top talent along with personalities that fit the mold of the company itself. However, the pay and opportunity to make more is not consistent with the types of people they are searching for.
Speed dating style interview process with entire team in office. Around three hours in total with a short fifteen minute break in between, standard behavioral questions, nothing technical. Short intro to senior leadership at the start.
There were three phases. One 30 min phone interview with HR. Another 30 min interview with a VP. And one final round interview cycling through 4 VP's, 30 minutes each.
2 phone interviews followed by an in-person super day.
Interviewed by members across different departments, most people are really fake and don't really know how to extract relevant skills from interviewees. The VP of the office couldn't even answer the question to what makes pure's product different from competing insurance companies and gave a very vague answer basically didn't even answer the question.
You don't have to be that smart or have any major skills to work here. They drag out the interview process for 3 months.
Everything about Pure is just mediocre- especially their people. Barely any diversity.
