I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at GEICO (Poway, CA) in Nov 2025
Interview
Initial interview is via a recruiter online.
If you pass your primary interview, you'll be asked for a secondary, in-person interview with several team members
Questions on initial interviews can/will depend on the recruiter and how well they've reviewed your resume & application.
They are very general in nature and usually focus on customer service scenarios:
Ex: How do you handle irate customers?
Ex: Describe a time where you went beyond customer expectations and delivered a stellar performance.
They may also ask you a few more focused questions about your work habits, job environments, and work performance records.

Question 1
You receive a customer call from a client who's extremely upset about an unresolved issue.
How would you handle the situation?
I applied online. I interviewed at GEICO (Tampa, FL)
Interview
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.

Question 1
1. Tell me a time when you had to deal with a customer and provided empathy?
Lots of questions. Compared to some other companies. Want to know why you want to work there. Coming in confident absolutely helps. Learn about the company and what the company offers and also deciding if you want to offer products and a sales type of way when you’re not in a sales facing position.
I interviewed via zoom call. I interviewed as I sat in my car because it was during my lunch break.
The interviewer was nice and the meeting was super easy with her. She asked me basic questions-technically I was trying to see my history of working with customers and if I had call center experience, which I did. She just wanted to hear my daily ins and outs with people in addition to my current job.
I didn't get the offer- which is strange because I currently hold my insurance license which is very current.
