I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Baltimore, MD) in May 2011
Interview
After completing my online application, I received a phone call week late from a HR representative wanting to setup a telephone interview. A few days later I got another phone call to attend a face to face interview. At the interview I met with two managers, one of them was my manager then the next interview I met with the Office manager and after my background investigation was complete, I was offered the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most difficult questions was asking how I feel about having to tell someone no. I now know they were asking me this because on daily basis I have to tell someone know about a liability decision, rental, repairs, and bodily injury settlements.
Very thorough, but friendly. They do ask the common interview questions using the STAR method and then go through the job responsibilities and training schedule. They answered any questions you may have that were not apparent in the job listing.
Too many interviewers on Zoom to focus on questions being asked and who was asking. Very distracting from the whole interview process. I wish they gave an interview rating or a reason as to why I was not chosen

Question 1
I do not recall the exact questions that were asked other than presented with scenarios
Smooth managers was understanding. They understood my experiences with previous employers. I will work three again, I just left because I had to move out of country for a while.
