The process took 1 week. I interviewed at GEICO (Falls Church, VA) in Dec 2009
Interview
At first I filled out an online application. The recruiter called me within 3 days to schedule a phone interview at a specific time in which he would call me. The call came a ful hour earlier than we agreed upon, and I missed his call. After several attempts to reach him and several bad connections later, he asked me generic questions like why does the job appeal to me, what makes me think I am qualified for the job, etc. Then he asked me what questions I had on the training (3-4 months long) and I asked everything that I could think of. I thought that this was a good sign, but I got a generic email 6 days later stating that I was not chosen to move forward. It seems that since he had called early, he got the wrong impression of me and was biased from then on out.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why does this job appeal to you the most? Why an auto damage adjuster and not a claims or customer service position.
I applied online. I interviewed at GEICO (Dallas-Fort Worth) in May 2026
Interview
I got a first interview which was a Zoom interview with a single recruiter. It was relatively informal and easy going. They appear to simply want to see if you are who you say you are on your application and you do indeed have the background and knowledge which you claim. My recruiter was very nice and very easy going. She asked just a few very typical questions about my job history. Easy stuff. We had a really positive conversation and she stated she was going to recommend me for an in person interview with the local claims manager. She said that would take place a neutral location such as a collision repair shops so we can discuss my field knowledge. She told me to expect a call from him in the next 3 business days. I received no communication after that. I emailed my recruiter after 2 weeks and asked for any update at all and received no reply. Three weeks after my initial interview I received an email stating I did not get the job.

Question 1
Did you provide notice of resignation at your last job?
Informative, not many questions. Tells you
About the job and the pay. then they’ll send your application to the hiring manager if you qualify for the job. from that you will have a second interview. The second interview is when you’re offered the job
1st phone interview with hiring manager, 2nd interview was with the area manager and included a Role Play. They don't expect you to know everything they just want to see how you handle yourself under pressure in my opinion.
