Do you have questions for Progressive's hiring team?
At the end of your HireVue interview, Progressive might provide you with the opportunity to ask questions about the role, the team, and the organization. The goal of your response is to show that you have put thought and care into the interview process and have come up with a couple of highly thoughtful and insightful questions for the hiring team.
Be sure to avoid obvious questions that would be very easy for you to answer through simple research. For example, avoid questions like 'How many years has the Progressive been around' You should already know the answer to this question from your research.
With the right amount of preparation, you could think of dozens of appropriate and helpful questions to show the decision-makers that you are interested in the job and engaged in the interview process. Going into your HireVue interview with insightful questions will show Progressive that you have put thought and care into your interview prep.
There are endless topics to approach when asking questions at the end of a HireVue interview. It's essential, however, to remain on topic and professional. Consider asking questions related to:
- The job and your day-to-day activities
- The team/department you will be joining
- The training and tools you will receive
- The departments' performance expectations
- The company/departments' short or long-term goals and objectives
The average HireVue interview takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. This one-way video interview typically includes 3-5 questions. Depending on the HireVue parameters set by Progressive, the asynchronous interview platform will generally give you 30 seconds to prepare a response and up to 2 minutes to answer each question. It's important to note that HireVue stops recording as soon as your time limit is up, so it's better to run under time than overtime.
"Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions today. My first question is, what is the most important quality Progressive looks for when assessing candidates? Next, in your opinion, how can I best succeed in this role at Progressive?"
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Nice! Having two or three thoughtful questions lined up for the interviewer is perfect. You might also ask about their onboarding process or what your day-to-day schedule will look like if you're hired. Good job!

Yes, What is your time frame for hiring? Do you have additional training and guidance for new employees?
Marcie's Feedback
Great! It's a good idea to have three or so thoughtful questions lined up to ask the interviewer if you get the chance. You can always inquire about the next step in the hiring process, what the onboarding process is like, or what your day-to-day routine will look like if you're hired.
