Entrevista
I applied online and within about 3 days I got an e-mail to set up a phone interview. The phone interview was the following day and it was simple, I was asked about attendance and tardiness at my previous jobs to which I said that I've never been late and probably missed work about 1 or 2 times. She also asked me what made me apply to GEICO and this position. She then told me to come in for an interview in 2 days and sent me an e-mail to re-confirm.
At the interview I was given a typing test which was very easy. I was also given a test where I had to wear a headpiece and had to take fake calls and e-mails that came in. You had to put in certain information the callers and e-mails gave you such as name, state, type of claim, current insurance coverage etc. They would pop up and sometimes there were 3 on the screen and they would remain for 60 secs. If you did not get to it in 60 secs it disappeared. There is no way for you to complete it all so try to be accurate. They said it's better to be accurate than to fill in all the fields wrong.
After that I was told I passed and had to wait about an hour to before I was interviewed. The interview lasted about 30-45mins. She asked me a bunch of remedial questions about previous customer service and my work history. Every cliche customer service you can think about she asked. Questions like, describe a time you went above and beyond for a customer, describe a time a customer was not satisfied with the service you provided, how would you deal with an irate customer, describer a time you had to persuade someone etc. She also asked expected questions like why did you apply here and why are you a good candidate for this position. After the interview she told more about the position and the salary and training period. She then asked me if I had any questions. She then said she had to forward my resume to the hiring manager or something and they would send me an e-mail in 2-3 business days. I got an e-mail 3 days later that they would not be moving forward with me.

It was a weird process, first it was on zoom and my interviewer told me to turn off my camera because of the bandwidth issues. Then she asked three questions and provided me the job description and the hours. She then asked me if I was looking for other work and If I was currently working. I did tell her that I am currently working and she told me that I have enough time to provide my current job a two weeks notice. After the interview she told me that she was going to endorse my application for review. Then she sent me another email saying that “Your recruiter will be in touch with you for next steps”. Then in the middle of night not even 24 hrs, I get a generic email saying that I was passed on. I wanted to find out why did I get an email saying that a recruiter was going to contact me, then I passed on from someone else. This was a customer service position and during the interview she told me that I have a lot of experience. I just didn’t like during that interview I was given false hope. I would not recommend applying to this company.
