I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Fredericksburg, VA) in Feb 2010
Interview
Sent an application online, was contacted by a recruiter. Was asked to come in and do an IQ test/personality test. Dress code was very comfortable, but presentable. Then was told a recruiter would contact me "the next day". Took 3 days and then was scheduled a phone interview. I had to go out of town however and we played phone tag and then it just fizzled.
