J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez GEICO (San Jose, CA)
Entretien
If you try to search for current job openings with Geico, you will most likely find lots of openings for Auto Damage Adjuster in any state, in any area. Guess why? Nobody likes the job and wants to stay.
First, after submitting the application and the personality test, I was contacted by a female recruiter in San Diego. Her communication skills were weak, and I was having a very hard time trying to explain things to her (by e-mail). I attempted to reach her by phone (as she claimed she welcomed that) three times on different days, and she would never answer. After checking out her profile on the professional network, her education and the professional background proved that my impression of her was right. She ended up just disappearing on me.
A few weeks later, another recruiter contacted me. He was more professional. I went trough the reading comprehension and visual logic test first, and then me and him we had a short phone interview. His main concern was whether I am truly interested in staying "on the field", basically being an Auto damage adjuster forever, with the opportunity one day (maybe!) to become a supervisor. In about a week later, he called to inform me with the date of in-person interview (which was scheduled 1.5 months away, since him and the team has to come to my area to conduct an interview with several candidates).
I was patiently waiting the whole month... Then I just read all about this crazy role-play game (the final step of an in-person interview) here and the feedback from all people that were Auto Damage Adjusters. I decided that the drawn-out 3-months recruiting process with multiple tests and this role-play game is ridiculous, and called off the in-person interview.

Entretien
I got a first interview which was a Zoom interview with a single recruiter. It was relatively informal and easy going. They appear to simply want to see if you are who you say you are on your application and you do indeed have the background and knowledge which you claim. My recruiter was very nice and very easy going. She asked just a few very typical questions about my job history. Easy stuff. We had a really positive conversation and she stated she was going to recommend me for an in person interview with the local claims manager. She said that would take place a neutral location such as a collision repair shops so we can discuss my field knowledge. She told me to expect a call from him in the next 3 business days. I received no communication after that. I emailed my recruiter after 2 weeks and asked for any update at all and received no reply. Three weeks after my initial interview I received an email stating I did not get the job.

Informative, not many questions. Tells you
About the job and the pay. then they’ll send your application to the hiring manager if you qualify for the job. from that you will have a second interview. The second interview is when you’re offered the job
1st phone interview with hiring manager, 2nd interview was with the area manager and included a Role Play. They don't expect you to know everything they just want to see how you handle yourself under pressure in my opinion.
