I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Allstate (Northbrook, IL) in Nov 2014
Interview
I was emailed to visit the Allstate main campus after recruited from a conference. They flew me out to Illinois and was a very positive atmosphere. I was called into an interview that was located at the cafeteria as it was mostly average technical questions to decide where I will mostly fit in the company. It was very relaxed and a great experience.
