J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez GEICO (Dallas, TX) en mars 2015
Entretien
I learned about the program from a recruiter at a job fair and applied online that night. Had my first phone interview within 2 days, second phone interview within the next day or two. Went in for an in-person interview along with testing and role playing the next week (took around 4/5 hours). The week after that, I went for a job preview along with two more interviews and accepted the position! (about 3/4 hours)
Tips:
Make sure that you have plenty of time on your interview days so you won't feel rushed, and as with anything in life be on time and prepared. Everyone was really friendly and helpful during the whole process. Each person clearly explained the next steps as I went along and I was given feedback after each interview which to me was very helpful. The recruiter stayed in contact with me, guiding me through the whole process which was really great. Each step in the process gave me insight into the job. I was able to see whether the job was a good fit for what I want for my future, and if my being hired would be mutually beneficial for the company as well as myself. I really appreciated that aspect. Also, for the drug testing they use hair so women, make sure you can easily take down your hair so they can get a sample.

Question 1
Lots of questions pertaining to leadership style and professional goals.
There were multiple interviews to gage logic and reasoning and a traditional interview with HR as well. It was a pretty seamless process overall. I did end up getting the job offer

Went through one 30 min and one 60 min phone interview and 2 assessments. Both of the phone interviews were so faceless and it was just question after question. After all that, I wake up to an email saying I wasn't moving on to the last round. Such a Micky mouse organization.

I applied for the MDP program in the Tristate area at the end of March. As I was prepping for the interview I looked on Glassdoor For tips but from my experience I believe a lot of our experiences will be different depending on where you are applying as my interview timeline seemed to be a little different from some reviews I read. So don’t depend on these reviews to be the exact same interview experience and timeline. One thing i will say is even though the process is long they move through the process fairly
Quickly so as long as you are also applying for other opportunities it won’t feel like such a dragged out process. Most of the time you will get feedback the same day you complete a step. I also did not do a pre recorded hire vue video interview like some people did on here.
1) Contacted by recruiter to send transcript and availability for a preliminary phone interview.
2) spoke with recruiter about general overview on program, reviewed experiences on my resume, why geico and touched on brief leadership experiences from past jobs. Also talked about general job behaviors like how many times were you late and how many times did you call
Out? I suggest answering these as if you never called out or were late because if you answer otherwise you will be called out for it.
3) first sent behavioral assessment with a virtual
Customer service simulation. The next day i was sent the caliper assessment that goes into detail about your personality management style and logical questions.
4) few days later after calipher I was invited to compete a second phone interview a week later where they asked me situational STAR questions and about where else I’m applying and how does geico compare to My other options. This interview seems like they want to get to know about your management style, more in depth information about your leadership experience and how interested you actually are in this position. During this call The interviewer let me know immediately i will be moving on to the next step in the process which is a manager interview.
I’m not sure if this is actually the last step or if this will be role play and then a final interview but from the wording it seems like this will be my last step. But my advice will be don’t depend on these reviews to give you the exact timeline on what to expect because it may differ depending on which location and MDP track you’re applying for. Just be honest and be yourself and don’t overthink it and you should do fine. This is my second time applying and I’m doing very well compared to the first time i applied two years ago and the first time i didn’t make it past the initial first phone interview. So if it’s meant to be and you don’t overly prepare you’ll do great! But don’t overthink it :)
Tell me about a time where you had to work with a customer who received news they didn’t expect to hear or a time where you dealt with a difficult customer
