"I know the company was founded in 1937 as an auto insurance provider. Over the years, different products, like homeowner's insurance, were added. My favorite fact is that Progressive was the first in the industry to give consumers the ability to buy (not just quote) an auto insurance policy in real-time online!"

I know that the company was founded in 1937 by two men who wanted to provide affordable insurance to everyone. Since then, the company has grown to employ over 50,000 people and has been named one of Fortune’s 100 best companies to work for.

Jaymie's Feedback
It's always helpful to demonstrate to the interviewer that you've done your research. Can you go into a little more detail about the products and services they offer? If you have ever been a customer, now would be an appropriate time to share what you know through your customer experience as well.
