I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Reno, NV) in Jul 2011
Interview
1 online assessment, 1 phone interview and finally onsite interview. The first step is to apply online at progressive careers website. Next you will do an online assessment where some questions will test your ability to analyze data; I never figured out how the questions were correlated with the job because some of them were assessing you ability to do forecasting based on prior data. The next step is a phone interview and finally an onsite interview.
