In my experience, I've applied for an entry-level position with Geico. After the phone interview, I was told to go to the local office and take a pre-employment computer test. This is an elementary level/basic skills test. It is multiple choice and very simple.
Another applicant was taken the same test on computer next to mine. When we finished, we were told to meet the interviewer at the desk. She dismissively said, "Sorry guys, you did not pass." This was very insulting for two college graduates to hear. She told me that she was not allowed to show me the test score. I fully understand why. Because I caught her in a lie.
I don't mind not getting hired to work for Geico, but I believe every applicant deserves a legitimate reason for not going on to the next level in the hiring process. This was an unethical practice and I hope no future applicant has to experience it.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
