      Applications Developer Lead Interview

      Apr 8, 2009
      Anonymous employee
      Colorado Springs, CO
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Colorado Springs, CO) in Nov 2008

      Interview

      Initial contact was through a national recruiter. She conducted a 45 min general background interview. These questions were in the format of Situation/Task, Action, Result (STAR). Once i completed this interview she told me I would receive a technical knowledge interview via telephone. About two days later, I received the call and was asked several questions regarding Microsoft .NET programming, web application development, and coding patterns. Once this interview was completed, I was called by the national recruiter and told I would participate in four 1-hour 1:1 interviews in their offices in Colorado Springs. These interviews also followed the STAR process with each person focusing on a different area (e.g. technical , relational, etc). Once this stage was completed, I was offered the position by the national recruiter.
