I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Allstate (Northbrook, IL) in Feb 2013
Interview
The interview took about 3 weeks and there were 2 phone screening and one on-site interview. The phone interviewers gave a great impression of the company, but the interviewers on-site were terrible. They were highly disrespectful, rude, arrogant, and clearly gave the impression, from the very beginning, that they had no interest in interviewing me, let alone offering me a job. It was a complete waste of time and energy. If they had no intention of hiring me, they should've just not asked me to come to their office.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked a question to predict something based on past statistics. The statistics were very limited, and even though there couldn't be a right answer (they said so themselves), they force you to give an answer - and then give you reasons for why it's wrong (there's not enough data).
- Applied through a program for minority college students
- Was invited to a 75-minute interview that was broken into two rounds (both with two individuals in each round)
- First round was presenting a case study I had compiled before the interview
- Second round was more general behavioral questions

Question 1
Case study that was provided beforehand; just general behavioral questions
Pretty easy process. Did 3 interviews and mainly behavioral type questions. Research the company and be prepared to talk about past experiences and how you could contribute for the specific role. Everyone was extremely kind and friendly.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Allstate (Fort Irwin, CA) in Oct 2021
Interview
Virtual interview process that can be completed on your own time. Very user friendly platform. There were multiple questions all recorded separately so you weren’t just talking for the entire process, there were breaks to refocus.
