I applied online for a Medical Adjuster Trainee, three to four weeks later received an email asking me to take an online assessment. Assessment contained some basic logic/math skills, but appeared to mainly focus on personal approaches to work issues and an individual's work style preference. After completing the online portion, I received an email stating I didn't match what they were looking for. While I understand there is likely a fairly sophisticated matrix that allows them to make hiring decisions based on multiple choice questions, I do feel it would serve them well to offer individuals who did not make the cut an opportunity to write a personal essay explaining their ability to do the job, or some other second step, as I am confident I would have been a real asset for them (realize that sounds terribly cocky, but I'm basing it on feedback I've received from every boss I've had).

Did IQ/personality test and then a phone interview in January 2012. I was then scheduled for a f2f interview but did not get an offer. The recruiter told me they really liked me but just didn't think I was a fit for that particular position. I applied again in April and a different recruiter called saying I came highly recommended and all I had to do was the f2f interview with the hiring manager. I interviewed on a Friday and received and offer on the following Tuesday.
