J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez GEICO (Bethesda, MD) en juin 2026
Entretien
Applied online, got a response from the recruiter after 2 weeks. After talking to the recruiter another week to schedule Job Fit round with the Senior Manager. The manager couldn't look less enthusiastic, whole interview was looking down (probably at my resume that he saw the first time during the call). Asked me a bunch of behavioral questions straight out of the book. Probably didn't even listen to my responses as he had no follow up questions. Next day I got a rejection email, no feedback. Very unprofessional place.

Ghosted after five rounds. Initial call with HR, then a coding session, then three more rounds with hiring manager and other senior engineers. About 4-5 hours total time invested across four days. Did well enough I expected an offer. Instead I was ghosted, not even a "thank you for your time" e-mail.

Entretien
Submitted application online and was contacted by a recruiter not long after. It was a standard interview process for the role: recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, then two short rounds of a virtual onsite which included coding, architecture, and behavioral questions. So far, so good. However, there was no follow-up from the recruiter for several weeks. I took the initiative to ask for an update from the recruiter who said that they unsuccessfully tried to get feedback from the hiring manager. Look, I get ghosting happens, especially at earlier stages but I was shocked to be ghosted for this senior of a level and at a late stage in the process. It's also a huge red flag that there was apparently little to no communication between the recruiter and hiring manager.
