I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (West Palm Beach, FL) in Apr 2017
Interview
My experience with the interview process for Claims Adjuster Trainee at Progressive was pretty good. The recruiting team provided very thorough instructions throughout each step of the process and the career section on the Progressive website gave an up close and personal view of the work culture within Progressive. My only suggestion would be in regards to the video interview process. I feel that it takes away from the experience. I understand that this is often an efficient and necessary process in many interviews, like for instance an international interview but for local interviews it is a little off putting. One of the appeals of Progressive is the diversity and work culture. Video interviews decrease the chances of a that personal connection. Not to mention, it gives people over a certain age or demeanor a disadvantage. Let's be realistic here, not everyone is comfortable in front of a camera or on video. That factored in with the person conducting the interview not being the manager for the branch you are interviewing for changes the dynamic. Watching a video of a person interviewing and actually interviewing that person face to face can be drastically different and ultimately cause the candidate the opportunity of working for an amazing company as well as that company missing the opportunity of having a great addition to their team.

Interview
I applied and was sent an email to complete a 30 minute assessment that must be completed within 6 days. I completed the assessment about 2 hours after receiving the email. Within about 30 minutes of completing the assessment I received an email stating I was selected for a short video interview as soon as possible and submissions are reviewed in the order in which they are received. This is how far I am in the process so far.
