I tried to apply for the Insurance Claims Processor position on their website and kept getting an error message. So I reached out to the recruiter, Haley Harvey, listed on the posting, she advised me to email her my resume snd she would call back that day, Feb 12, 2020, but no later than the next day Feb 13, 2020.. I have since reached out to her numerous times and left voicemails. Haley Harvey have not returned my calls or replied to my email as if today Feb 20, 2020..

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Aerotek (Bellevue, WA)
Interview
Was very easy going at first, had an initial phone screening interview with my campus recruiter that was easy, and lots of behavioral questions. Then had an onsite interview scheduled with a manager (who was late) and had a lengthy 90 minute conversation not really about Aerotek, it was all about me and what in my life had prepared me to begin my career at Aerotek. Then I did not receive a response from them or my recruiter when I sent them a thank you follow up email. Waited until a month and a half later for my recruiter to say anything, the emailed the recruiter what the next interview steps would look like or if I was even still being considered. Was not offered to continue, but I wouldn't have accepted to continue the process anyways with the poor experience I had with them, and that I was successfully moving forward with several other recruiting firms that valued me more.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of the more interesting experiences I have had at an interview, they ask about your background, then begin to ask you more personal questions getting to know what motivates you, your goals in your career, some risks you have taken in life, etc. However they continue to dig into your personal life and really want to know deep stories to back up these behavioral questions, I am all for determining what motivates a candidate and why you would be passionate about a certain job....but it was really uncomfortable having them pry into my family history, life struggles, and having a stranger want to dig deep into my personal life was extremely uncomfortable. That isn't necessarily what makes me a qualified candidate for your job, should not really have to prove that I have a personality.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Aerotek (San Francisco, CA) in May 2019
Interview
From applying to the actual in person interview, the process took almost 4 weeks. The recruiter did a mediocre job at the 1:24 communication rule that Aerotek has in place. This rule states that all communications need to be responded to within the hour and follow ups within 24 hours. It took DAYS for the recruiter to respond to my emails to schedule a phone screen. I had to pick up the phone and call her because she did not think to call me after us missing each other's emails multiple times. Phone Screen with recruiter was fast and I immediately got an onsite interview with DBO. Next was a 4 hour shadow with the potential team. They shared ALOT of information on daily tasks.
