Interviewed Sep 2011 in Washington, DC (took 3 days)
So I went to a career fair to meet with these people and I made a good impression there and they asked me to fill out their online application. I already had and a day or two later someone from out of state called to set up a phone screen for a week later. The phone screen was an overview of the position and some questions about my resume. I think this was mostly to make sure I knew what I was applying for the position is somewhat rigorous with some non traditional hours and travel. I was well aware and communicated that over the phone. After that I was contacted for a skills test/IQ test at their area office. The test consisted of pattern recognition, geometry, spatial recognition, and interpreting policies. The last bit they had you edit an excel spreadsheet and compose a letter to an angry customer to whom a claim was denied. The test wast timed so there was some pressure there and I didn't get to the last one or two questions on a few of the sections. They give you the formulas for the math in the test, but make sure you know them before going because going back to look up a formula will waste a ton of time. I wasn't sure on a section or two, but apparently I did alright and I was invited back a week later for an interview with two people. It was a behavioral interview that focuses on ethics, difficult situations, and problem solving. I was just out of school and I didn't have too much to go on in terms of actual ethical dilemmas. There was very little flow to the conversation because they read from a packet of HR sanitized questions and wrote down my answers. There was pressure to be short with my answers so I didn't feel like I got a chance to explain very much. The second part of the interview had me talking to one of the reps. He was a six year veteran and he seemed to be someone most people in the office looked to for guidance. He went over the details of his daily routine and talked about the things on his list and he answered my questions told a story or two and showed me out. I waited two weeks to hear back then called to confirm my suspicions and received no response to my message. I took another offer and that was that.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Richmond, VA (took 3 days)
I don't know what to think exactly. I got an e-mail back very quickly to schedule a phone interview. I appeared to fit the desired background criteria and the initial phone interview seemingly went well but it has been about a month with no feedback of any kind.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
The interview lasted 45 minutes. I was very prepared. I had researched the company in detail.
The conversation was candid, but professional.
I suggest for phone interviews to know every detail of any and all transferable skills and focus on those.
The questions were very technical. It was more focused on the skills than whether or not I would be a good fit in the organization.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Louisville, KY (took 2 weeks)
So far I was contacted by a representative to set up a phone interview and contacted promptly at the time specified. The phone interview did not last too long, approximately 15 minutes and then I was scheduled to take an exam a week later. Not a very difficult test at all. Basic match, perception, cognitive ability...I was contacted the very next morning saying I did well and scheduled for a 2 member interview next week.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Charlotte, NC (took 2 weeks)
Phone interview was was simple, basic questions about your past. "Testing" was long with 8 parts to it including Math, typing, pattern recognition (checking addresses vs a master key for errors), listening skills, personality testing and basic insurance knowledge (such as reading guidelines and then answering questions). It really wasn't too difficult but it is a lengthy process that will wear you down quickly. I know that it says "IQ Test" but it really isn't one. If you can follow directions and read them carefully you will be fine. Next step (which I am currently waiting for) is for them to call back if you passed the test and will be some type of interview. I will update as time goes on.

I first had a phone interview which lasted about 30 minutes and asked some general behavioral questions. After the phone interview I was invited to come to their office for an interview day. The interview day consisted of four 1:1 30 minute interviews as well as a tour and a general information briefing.

The culture at Travelers is very collaborative and they have a great internship program in place. All the interns live together in townhouses and work on projects together. It seemed like a great working environment. The interview was pretty hard.

Interviewed Sep 2009 in Houston, TX (took a day)
The interview consisted of 3 managers. They asked questions about my willingness to travel, about any fear of heights (estimating roof damage is part of the job), and general insurance questions to give me an opportunity to demonstrate my familiarity with property insurance policies. I also was required to demonstrate how I would explain insurance policy provisions to policyholders.
