Tell me about your post-secondary experience and how it prepared you for a career with Progressive.
The interviewer would like to know more about your degree program and how you will apply what you've learned. Assure the interviewer that you have gained transferable knowledge and are prepared to apply that knowledge. If you had specific projects or internships relevant to the position you're applying for, be sure to speak to those in your response.

"Although I do not bring industry-specific post-secondary education, I have completed some coursework that would be transferable to this role with Progressive. These courses include business administration, portfolio management, and organizational behavior."

This answer is a nice start; however, it could use more specifics. The interviewer likely has basic details on your college experience from your resume. What other information could you provide to fill in the blanks (i.e., best coursework, academic accolades)?
