I had one interview with the supervisor and they hired me on the spot. The supervisor was really easy to talk to and we got along well from the start. The company wants to ensure you're a good fit and that you're comfortable working in a call center environment.

I applied online and got a call from the HR recruiter. They asked me some questions about my background and why I wanted the job. Then, I had a second interview at Colonial Penn with two supervisors. They asked general questions about my background, sales experience, and what I wanted to do in the future. I got a call two days later and they offered me the job.

I applied online and did an online skills/personality test. HR called me a few days later to schedule an in-person interview. It was a 3-step process: first I met with the Sales supervisor, then I took more skills/personality tests, and finally I met with the Sales Manager. The whole in-person part took about 4 hours. I also authorized a background check. HR gave me the offer 3 days after that.
