applied online in early May, was emailed the next day to complete a online assestment, after that you get a email informing you if you passed or not, I passed and was informed a recruiter will be in touch ina day or so. within a few hours I was contacted to set up a phone interview. They noticed I was out of state and said I would need to come to the Progressive office for a face to face interview at my own expense no exceptions. I declined at that point. About 3 weeks later I noticed a Senior level position posted so I called the recruiter back to see if I could be considered fo rthis role and if I have to fly down there still. I got another recruiter who was more udnerstanding to the fact that paying $400 for a ticket for a interview that may or may not lead into a psoition is crazy. She said she was going to ask the hiring managers to see if they will make the exceptions if i pass the phone interview. The phone interview they reviewed your resume and asked you 7-10 STAR based questions " tell me about a time". I was informed 2 weeks laters the managers made the exception and will do a phone interview which was scheduled for 2 hours on the phone. All the manager did was ask STAR based questions the recruiter asked about 10-18 during the whole 2 hours which I thought was out of this world crazy. Then I recieved a call 2 days ago saying I was not select because they thought I didnt give the best answers to the STAR questions and next time I apply I should study more on them,
