I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at GEICO (San Diego, CA) in Aug 2021
Interview
I applied on the 12th, they called me for the first assessment on the 13th. 10 minutes after I completed the assessment they called me to schedule a phone interview which was on the 16th. After I did a 30 minute phone interview they sent another assessment which took around 15 minutes to complete. Once I finished that assessment 10 minutes later they called and scheduled for a final interview that I would need to watch a 40-minute video and then a roleplay video call the next day. Once finished they sent me the offer. All in all the hiring process took around 5 days only.
There are two rounds. The first round is virtual and they ask about your background and if you can handle the process. For the second-round, You will shadow someone for 20 minutes then proceed for a 40 minute interview. There are a lot of situational questions.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at GEICO
Interview
Straight forward. There are 2 interviews, must pass 1st to get 2nd. 2nd interview is more detailed and is on site. 1st interview is via zoom. 2nd interview about 45 minutes to an hour
I applied online. I interviewed at GEICO (Tampa, FL)
Interview
It was a weird process, first it was on zoom and my interviewer told me to turn off my camera because of the bandwidth issues. Then she asked three questions and provided me the job description and the hours. She then asked me if I was looking for other work and If I was currently working. I did tell her that I am currently working and she told me that I have enough time to provide my current job a two weeks notice. After the interview she told me that she was going to endorse my application for review. Then she sent me another email saying that “Your recruiter will be in touch with you for next steps”. Then in the middle of night not even 24 hrs, I get a generic email saying that I was passed on. I wanted to find out why did I get an email saying that a recruiter was going to contact me, then I passed on from someone else. This was a customer service position and during the interview she told me that I have a lot of experience. I just didn’t like during that interview I was given false hope. I would not recommend applying to this company.
