Progressive Insurance is planning to hire 65 additional employees for sales and customer service related positions in Austin. The company hopes to have all new hires in place by the end of June, making this a very short window of opportunity.
The candidates who will have the best chance for hiring will have at least two years of post-high school education and two years of relevant experience. According to their website, they are already accepting applications for positions in Claims, Inbound Sales, and Customer Service. They also have positions for Inbound Sales for their Small Business line of products. There is also one position posted for building maintenance.
Progressive Insurance has been providing insurance products since 1937 and earned a Best Places To Work award from the Austin American-Statesman in 2010. They also earned a Best Places To Work in Central Texas from the Austin Business Journal in 2010. The Austin location is off of Ben White Blvd (Hwy 71), east of I-35.

I have applied a couple of different times this month and have not been scheduled for an interview. I am surprised by this because I have call center customer service experience. I would love to work for Progressive and know that I have what they are looking for. The Benwhite location is also close to my home.
Don’t get discouraged, yet. I also worked in a call center environment as a technical and sales trainer. We had set classroom sizes, so hiring was done to match the classroom seats available. It often took us numerous classes to get through our hiring goals, which means the hiring was spread out over a number of months. Best of luck to you!
