Interviewed Mar 2010 in Durham, NC (took 4+ weeks)
After filling out an application it took a few months for a phone call. Once I got a phone call for the first interview the process only took 30 days from interviews, tours, drug test and background screening, and offered the job. If you're interviewing make sure you are confident, customer driven and willing to go the extra mile.

Interviewed May 2011 in Durham, NC (took a day)
I did a online app, personality test, call center simulation. I was emailed about an interview. I got there and it was a room of about 10 other interviewees. There were 3 other time slots that day, so I assume there were about 40-50 total interviewees. I was a bit concerned after that because I didn't know how many openings they had. Beating out 10 people is extremly dificult, but 40-50, I dont know. It took me 2 hours start to finish. I did three 1-1 interviews, one with a HR person, one with the Team Lead and one with a Manager. It wasn't as formal as I thought it would be. They each asked standard targeted selection questions. (EX.Tell me about a time when... Decision making, leadership, Irrate customers, etc.) My HR person seemed a bit annoyed, but the Team lead and Manager were great.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Chapel Hill, NC (took 2 weeks)
BCBSNC does "target selection" interviews, which consist of a bunch of situational questions. Some folks stick to it, and others do not. I found the canned questions to be incredibly silly, but I appreciated the subsequent questions and conversation I had with my manager.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Durham, NC (took a day)
Pretty straight forward. i did three 1:1 interviews in a rotation on the same day. they ask behavioral pointed question, and want answers to be very detailed and specific with outcomes and end results of your past behavior in employment settings. for example they may ask.. tell us a time when you you could not address someone's problem with a resolution. they want you to go into detail about the situation what actions you took and the over all outcome.
