      Application

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CNA in Oct 2017

      Interview

      CNA came to my college during one of our career fairs where I got a chance to speak to one of the recruiters. After a brief conversation which went relatively well I was told I would be contacted later for a on campus interview during the coming week. The response was prompt we set up a time to interview the following week in which I was interviewed by 4 (2 at a time) different people who were all recent college grads and had been through the training program or just completed it. They said they would be in touch during the coming days which actually turned into weeks (yes weeks of not hearing back, I actually thought they had moved on with other candidates). Finally got called for a final round interview in their headquarters where I was interviewed by 4 different people back to back. As the interviews went on it became much more apparent that this job was not for me (it seemed like the interviewers were emphasizing the front facing aspect and less the analytical). Ultimately did not get a job offer, but the only negative experience was the length of time it took for them to contact me regarding decisions.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CNA (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      The entire hiring process is daunting. Everything takes forever, HR is a joke and there’s an obvious reason for such Hugh turnover. Drug test and background check got lost in Cyberspace twice.

      Question 1

      How do you think CNA will benefit by hiring you to join the team?
