It's always hard to know what to expect when going in for that interview -- and preparation can make all the difference. What is the interview process like at Hartford?

Any advice on striking the right note?

Be prepared for a "20 Questions" screener interview to see if you even qualify for the 'real' interview. Have several examples ready- i.e. when you had a conflict and resolved it, when you organized a group of people, when you worked with a customer regarding an ongoing issue, etc etc. The interviewer called over an hour late, and didn't apologize. After the interview I was asked to drive three hours to one of their testing centers to complete another screener for an hour. There was no mention of compensation. Please. I'm better off looking elsewhere.

My interviewer did not call me at our scheduled time. I had to call them back to confirm our phone appointment. The lady did apologize and we went on with the interview.

The lady was professional but a little icy at the conclusion of our interview. I received a rejection email a few days later. Evidently the lady didn't think a Bachelors degree was enough to compensate for my unstable work history. Then I wondered why you would even need a Bachelors degree to be a Supply Room Technician.

Hi. In answering your question regarding the interview process at Hartford. I think that the 1st commentor, dglaz was right on the money when they said, "Be prepared for a "20 Questions" screener interview to see if you even qualify for the 'real' interview". However, though if you do sell yourself decently in the 1st screener, it shouldn't be too difficult to land the official interview soon after and do well in, again. "Have several examples ready- i.e. when you had a conflict and resolved it, when you organized a group of people, when you worked with a customer regarding an ongoing issue, etc etc".

However, I must say more importantly to be yourself. This is of course if your naturally a people's person and can atleast appear to have learned how to sell yourself and your experiences that you had while attending school or while in the workforce. Be ready to be able to reasonably explain how your skills learned could be applied to a specific job (of interest) at the Hartford. Oh and dress professionally. I am a guy and wore basic business attire, kakis and button up, long-sleeve shirt with a nice tie and nice shoes and overall had a very basic, but well-groomed look.

I actually had a different experience than the other two commentors and was offered a position in claims. I am a recent college grad and have only worked part time jobs here and there but also have a lot of other skills I learned in school that I was able to sell that was relatable to the position I was applying for in claims.

I recieved an immediate response of interest and an official offer a couple of days later. So, of course, my experience as expected has been mostly positive. I think that this is an excellentI company to learn and grow in, due to all of the great possibilities of this experience. I wish you the best of luck and say go get it tiger!
