      Customer Service Representative Interview

      29 Jun 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Rancho Cordova, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance (Rancho Cordova, CA) in Jun 2017

      Interview

      The overall experience was very thorough, but great. They leave out no detail. I started with applying online, completing an assessment test, then was prompted to complete a phone interview a few days later. The phone interview was simple - it lasted about 35 minutes. The recruiter was super nice and asked basic behavioral questions. She also asked quite a bit about my previous employment history and wanted detail on my roles and duties. After the phone interview, I scheduled an on-site interview. I was pretty nervous beforehand, but it was a GREAT experience! I began the first part of the interview with one of the managers, who genuinely seemed interested in what I was saying. Once that was overwith, I was to sit down with a current CSR employee and listen in on calls. That taught me a lot about the job and gave me a feel for what it would be like on duty. Once 30 minutes passed with the CSR, I was taken away to complete the second part of the interview. Again, I sat with a different manager and was asked similar behavioral questions. The interview took 2 hours, but they were 2 hours well spent! I really tried to connect with my interviewers and make conversation beyond just the interview questions. I also had a couple of questions prepared beforehand to ask them about the company when the interview was over, and they seemed to appreciate that. I was lucky enough to get a call back afterward with a job offer :-) The whole hiring process took about 5-6 weeks. Easy to say, the best interview/hire experience I've ever had!

      Customer Service Representative Interview

      29 Jan 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Progressive Insurance

      Interview

      I submitted my application and then got invited to complete a HireVue interview. It was about eight questions, all requiring STAR style responses. After I finished the interview, I received a rejection email. I honestly hate when companies play in people’s faces like this. What was the point of making me do an online interview if you already decided based on my resume? If you weren’t interested from the start, just say that. I have very little respect for companies that reject people through recorded online interviews, without ever allowing them to speak to a real person. It feels less like recruiting and more like a way to collect personal data our voices, our faces, without any real intention of moving forward.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when a customer or individual told you no at first and you were able to convince him or her to say yes.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Progressive Insurance

      Interview

      Recruiter was rude, emailed me an hour before my interview and asked if I was available right now. I quickly responded and said that I could be ready in 20 mins sighting that our original interview was not for another hour. Upon the interview he made a comment about not being able to drop everything and start the interview an hour early. I had inquired about a religion question and holidays that differ from normal US holidays and he said yeah that wouldn't really align with our values. I should have sued. He sighted on my after interview report that I didn't have the experience he was looking for (which was a lie).
