Emerging Leaders Program: Operations and Technology Interview Experience - Tucson, Arizona
Process
The interview process for this program was very thorough. There was a phone interview, a video interview with a recruiter, a caliper test, a face-to-face interview at GEICO headquarters in Maryland, and an interview at the regional office you are interested in working at.
I made it to the final round, but I believe the executives thought my background and experience didn't match the skill set they were looking for in the program.
Nevertheless, after going through the process, I have a lot of respect for the associates who work at GEICO and the vision of the organization. They are fully dedicated to their firm and their work, and that's respectable.
I would recommend this opportunity to others.

GEICO Work Experiences
- 3.0Great launching place for insurance careerEmerging Leaders Program: Operations and Technology • Former EmployeeApril 3, 2019Pros: A great place to obtain industry knowledge for insurance. GEICO is cutting-edge in the insurance industry, and there is a wealth of knowledge to be gained. The mentorship and leadership exposure provided in the Emerging Leaders program is second to none, and it provides a great launching platform for a career in project management, insurance, and operations management.Cons: GEICO does a great job providing a foundation for learning and growth, but the flame can burn out after a few years. Many things about the company (salary action, workplace culture) are archaic. I would suggest this job as a great place to start, but once the well runs dry, you'll find exit opportunities that are much more fruitful.
- 4.0Great Advancement, High PressureEmerging Leaders Program: Operations and Technology • Current EmployeeFredericksburg, Virginia, United StatesMarch 31, 2019Pros: Good pay and benefits. Profit sharing is nice. There's a lot of opportunity for advancement.Cons: Very results-driven. Varies per month, and it doesn't matter if you were good last month; you always need to be on top of everything.
- 1.0Great for entry-level opportunities, but draining in the long runEmerging Leaders Program: Operations and Technology • Current EmployeeVirginia Beach, Virginia, United StatesApril 27, 2016Pros: Lots of experience in a short period of time. They keep a tight budget and do not want to have to hire non-foxhole roles if they don't have to. So, if you're willing to work the extra time to do additional projects for added experience, then this place is perfect.Cons: Extreme micromanagement, poor/dishonest communication for the Emerging Leaders Program, and an expectation to have one person do the job of multiple associates with the same salary.
