Met the National General team at a career fair, applied online, and emailed the area's Corporate Recruiter. Was given a 15 minute phone interview. However, National General gave me a "sorry, not interested email" with a counter-offer of an interview opportunity for a 90 day, part-time internship at $16 (!!!) an hour that "could" lead to full-time employment Since I did great on the phone interview, have the strongest resume a recent graduate can have, and a couple friends gave me the same story, I have a theory that National General's perpetual recruiting to fill a "critical staff shortage" is a cheap labor strategy to get peon-interns to do as much the work of livable-income career employees as possible. National General, then, is the WalMart of insurance. Don't even try to work here unless desperate, or this is the best your skills and abilities can yield you on the free market.

The company's recruiter calls and chats with you for a minute to see if you qualify for an interview. Next I had an interview 3 days later and the two people that interviewed me were very kind and didn't ask common strange questions.
