I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at State Farm (Dallas, TX) in Sep 2016
Interview
Two parts. First part over the phone, behavioral. Second part in person, technical. The first part is pretty straight forward. Tell us a time when you were part of a group and someone was not contributing, how did you handle this situation? And others like it. The second part focused on java and object oriented programming technical questions.

Hire Vue video Interview, but they get back to you pretty quickly. They are trying to get through a lot of applicants and it is obvious in their hiring process.
Interview included a virtual interview where you're asked to record video answers. This is followed by a coding challenge. Finally, there was a live video call interview with team members.

Question 1
What was the most challenging task you faced, how did you overcome it, and what did you learn?
It consisted of three rounds: screening coding, self-recording interviews, and panel interviews. Panel interview was very technical, and questions were closely related to the job responsibilities. The difficulty for coding assessment wasn't as bad but definitely need to know the basics.
