I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at GEICO
Interview
I applied to be in the auto damage department but since they saw I am a recent college graduate, I automatically got bumped to this. That is what I was told by my reference within the company who is in top management.
I was asked for my college transcripts, which I knew would work against me because when I started college, I was a health care major and really really did not want to be, and my grades reflected that. Got a phone interview which was pretty standard in terms of questions, but upon submitting my transcripts was ultimately told I would not be moving forward.
A lot of steps which included multiple phone interviews and an in person interview that involved role playing. Checked out my ability to prioritize by looking at a route map and planning a day, and negotiate. There were 4 other people in the room to interview me.
I applied online. I interviewed at GEICO in Jan 2023
Interview
First interview with recruiter, phone review with another recruiter, and then last interview with director. Total of 3 screenings. Overall, customer service questions and how you responded or dealt with a particular situation.

Question 1
Q: Name a time when you seen a team member have more potential and they weren't using it
I did so horribly on my interview. A couple of months later I got an email from the recruiter who conducted my email asking to apply for the job. So, it wasn't horrible enough to be remembered.
