I applied online. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Portland, OR) in Sep 2015
Interview
I filled out an application and was asked to take an online assessment test a few days later. I was notified that I passed, and was then asked to schedule a phone interview with a recruiter. The phone interview followed the STAR format, but the recruiter was pretty cold and humorless. I thought I did well and was told that I would be contacted "within a few days" regarding the next steps. Well, an entire month went by and nobody bothered to contact me. At the very least, they could have sent a rejection email, but I didn't even get that. Overall, this was a negative experience. Companies shouldn't leave applicants twisting in the wind for weeks just because they can. Very unprofessional and left me with a bad impression of this company. Instead of endless television commercials -- that are pretty lame, by the way -- maybe Progressive should consider hiring some better recruiters.

Met the minimum requirements, then I got a link to the four part assessment. Once I passed the assessment, almost right away I got an invite to a HireVue interview. Finally, I got to interview with real people.
