I applied online. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Riverview, FL) in Jul 2017
Interview
I applied online, a recruiter contacted me within 48 hours to complete an online assessment. After the online assessment a recruiter reached out to schedule a phone interview and from there an in person interview was scheduled at the Riverview, FL location. The recruiters were extremely helpful, answered all of my questions (ASK QUESTIONS and for feedback, they are very helpful with this) and they always kept me in the know for the next step and where I stood in the interview process. I never wondered when I would hear from someone or if I was still in the running for the job.
The background check takes a bit but the longest part is waiting for the training classes to begin. I accepted the job at the end of July/beginning of August and do not start until mid September.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Started with basic questions about job history, how I heard about Progressive and why I wanted to work there and then went into STAR questions. Be prepared to answer all questions with a STAR response. They give you sample questions prior to each interview - be prepared for those types of questions.
Tell me about a time when you had a lot of tasks to complete by a specific deadline. How did you handle/manage these tasks/deadlines?
