Application
I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance in Apr 2023
Interview
Applied late April 2023 and received an email about 5 days later inviting me to take an assessment. Lots of reviews on here discuss how this is structured so I won't go too in depth with that. I received an email the day after I took the assessment (did it on a weekday so your mileage may vary) stating that I passed and could move forward to the recorded interview questions. I stopped the application process at this point. If I had what the application process entailed (I hadn't looked here first) I likely wouldn't have applied. It's not that I felt it was overly complicated, I just didn't want to go through several steps before actually speaking to a human...which apparently is done via telephone which I hate and likely is conducted by someone I wouldn't even be working with/for. I rely a lot on the interview process to clue me in as to what kind of culture I will be working in and what the actual expectations are. Simply offering benefits and a decent salary aren't going to cut it if the company's expectations are unrealistic and by superiors are terrible people.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Math: Our sales last quarter were 87 but this quarter they are at 113. I can't believe we increased them by xx %. Vocab: "Your managers are always in flux." (you select a response that indicates you understand what in flux means) Personality: I can tolerate a messy area, but only for so long (select agree or disagree)
I have not completed the process yet but, first was an online assessment, then if you 'pass' you are moved on to a HireVue video interview which takes about 30 minutes with 8 questions.

I applied online. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Colorado Springs, CO)
Interview
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.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you had to deal with a difficult customer.
It was a fairly lengthly process which involved the application, an assessment, pre-recorded one way interview, and a live virtual interview. Asked behavior-based STAR questions. It was extensive with at least 10 questions.
