I applied online. I interviewed at Travelers (Charlotte, NC) in Aug 2015
Interview
The interview wasn't bad at all, but quite lengthy. My interview was scheduled for 11 and I left the building around 1:30. I was not informed over the phone that I would be interviewed by a panel, but the night before after reading other testimonials, I was prepared for a panel or a series of interviews. Long story short, I was interviewed by 3 individuals at once (2 directors and 1 manager). I was overall comfortable in the situation. The questions were normal behavioral questions, however they want you to EXPLAIN IN DETAIL. You definitely have to think and pause for a moment to answer many of them. The interview quickly turned more personal and relaxed after about 10 minutes (they wanted to learn about me as a person thru my experiences and and education). After an hour and a half, I was asked to shadow an employee for about 30 minutes. I was told I know something in the forthcoming weeks with no specific date. The following business day I sent thank you emails to my interviewers. After 3 weeks I have no answer. I reached out to one of the directors and she informed me they are still in the decision making process. I am still remaining patient and optimistic.

Question 1
How did you prepare for this interview differently than any you have had before?
Fairly straight forward, nice to meet the team and see what the company does. Good to ask questions to those interviewing you. Good to show off soft skills. The interview process took about 3 rounds and you get to meet someone on the team and ask them questions.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Travelers in Aug 2021
Interview
I applied online and took an assessment. After that it took about a week for someone to contact me, and set a phone interview that lasted 45 mins. It consisted of introductions and behavioral questions. A week later I received a phone call to set up an interview with the manager and they asked more in-depth behavioral questions and asked why I wanted this position. Furthermore, a few days passed and I got a third interview with the director. The interview was mostly an overview of the position and department, and asked about my skills and abilities. Mostly trying to see if I would fit. A week later I received an offer! Everyone I spoke to was professional and reassuring during the process. I applied in August and received an offer in October, so it was a long process so don't worry if it takes time to hear back!
Thank you for sharing your interview feedback with us.
While it may seem lengthy, our interview process is important in connecting the right candidate to the right role. Our hiring teams strive to help our candidates along the way and we are pleased to hear that was your experience.
Welcome to the Travelers team!
Took me through a series of interviews with Current employees, some management, and HR VP's. Never heard back from the company spanning over multiple days. Despite the time committed to these interviews, they didn't didnt bother to communicate that they chose another candidate, and left me in the dark for a month and a half. Finally reached out to see the status to find outI hadn't been selected, and a week later sent a rejection email. Thanks Travelers.
