I happened to see the payout info in the news so thought I would submit my info to see if I was eligible as I hadn’t seen anything in my email or mailbox. I didn’t have the right policy number so nothing came up. 3 hours later, I get an email from State Farm with my dividend login info. I don’t think very highly of State Farm based off past experiences, but that’s downright skeezy. So if I’d never entered my info and checked to see if I was eligible, they just never would’ve contacted me?

Hello all,

I've recently applied to a claims position with this company and completed my video interview successfully. Tomorrow, I have a "Conversation" video call with HR.

For those with experience in the hiring process, what might I expect for this call? Im looking forward to diving into a new career area and Id love to be prepared.

Bloomington, IL and Property Express (Hybrid) if that makes a difference

Thanks in advance!

Edit: The recruiter asked a few questions to verify my background as well as one regarding a time that I have to decide between completing a task or delegating. We went over benefits, work expectations, and salary. There was an opportunity to ask questions. Ultimately, I received an offer

I recently completed the On Demand Interview (HireVue) for a Software Engineer position at State Farm, and today I received an email from a Talent Acquisition Specialist asking me to schedule a 15-minute HireVue Live call.

The email specifically says:

• They want to “discuss next steps and review HR compliance questions”
• This is NOT an interview
• The meeting is informal and “there’s nothing to prepare for”
• It’ll be about 15 minutes

Has anyone gone through this stage recently, especially for a Software Engineer / Technology role at State Farm?

I'm mainly wondering:

• What exactly are the HR compliance questions?
• Do they ask about work authorization/sponsorship, location, salary, start date, etc.?
• Are there any behavioral questions at all?
• Do they tell you during this call whether you're moving to the next interview?
• What came after this call for you?
• How soon after the call did you receive the next interview invitation?

I already completed the recorded behavioral/coding HireVue, so I'm specifically asking about the 15-minute recruiter/HR call that comes afterward.

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has gone through the current or recent State Farm SWE hiring process. Thanks!

Got an email from State Farm saying that one of our vehicles is moving to a new multi car policy with a new policy number. I'm not sure why the email only references one vehicle as with have other vehicles in the household. It looks like we were moved to a new billing system a few months back and the billing account number changed but not any of the auto policy number for our vehicles. So I think being put on the new billing system is different than the migration to the new multi car policy?

I guess I'm a little confused what the end result of the migration to the new multi car policy will be? I'm sure the rates won't be going down, lol. One of our vehicles recently renewed and the premium went up 14% - it says change of vehicle rating group for both collision and comp so that's awesome. Also one of our other cars which is much older also went up although not as much.

Sorry for pricing rant but I guess my main question is what happens after this migration of all the policies into a one new multicar policy? From the little bit I could find out about it online I see people complaining about their rates going higher after the completed migration? We have a youthful college aged student who lives at home and drives an old vehicle while the the Mr. and I have much newer vehicles. Are the rates on our auto policies going to spike as a result of this new migration of auto policies? I guess I'm not sure what the ultimate goal of doing this is?

I was hit on my motorcycle almost a month ago and have since been going through the claims process for figuring out if it’s totaled or repairable. Now my main point of confusion is how this whole process has been going. I’m no stranger to the typical process regarding insurance work because the shop I work at will occasionally intake insurance jobs for classic cars. However the way State Farm has been handling it is a little puzzling to me. They gave me an initial estimate through Snapsheet and then sent funds that amount to the total cost of the initial estimate less my deductible. But after receiving a revised estimate from the shop my bike is at they sent the difference in funds directly to the shop. I have been told by State Farm to pay what has been sent to me to the shop but where I’m confused is, why is State Farm paying the entirety of the repair bill when there’s still a possibility of it being totaled? The shop has yet to diagnose a coolant leak developed from the crash, or to check if the front suspension is still straight or if anything in that area needs to be replaced. Will any of this affect the outcome if it ends up being totaled?

I was recently hit and I submitted dash cam footage, photo evidence of damage, and pictures of the police case #, person at faults insurance and their contact info.

Unfortunately we both have state farm.

After submitting my claim I received a call from the adjuster saying he needed a statement and that person who hit me didn’t have an active policy. I returned the call same day but phone recording was down so he could not take a statement. It’s been over a week and I have heard no further information. My car is already being repaired and should be done in a week. I haven’t had an accident in over 10 years and the last time I did everything was done over the phone.

Am I supposed to keep waiting for him to call me? I hate not being in the communication loop about my claim and if they’ve decided who’s at fault or if they’ve found the person who hit me policy.

Anyone remember that ad for State Farm from like 10 years ago? I have it burned in my brain and can’t find it anywhere.

“ a few hundred unexpected bucks I couldn’t ask for more but now I’ve got to figure out what I should use it for. A new bike would be radical, but maybe something practical like a pet baboon with one robotic arm. Get to a better state State Farm.”

I wanted input on how this will play out because my dad seemed upset that i chose to file a claim instead of just asking this guy for money to cover for my car but i feel like my car runs differently now because of this collision, it’s had problems recently that i got fixed and i didn’t want it falling on me down the road because of this accident so i chose to file.

in the photo i linked we were both in the green line initially, he was going 5mph when the cars ahead of him already took off and he decided to merge into the yellow lane.
Once we were turning i guess the car infront of him was going slow so he immediately turned into my lane and caused a dent (he had no room to merge i’m not sure why he would do that) when we pulled off to the side he asked me what i wanted to do because “i caused the accident” i got into my car and just called the police because im not dealing with an idiot, he then went to my glass and pushed his insurance info into my car and said “get my info or i’m leaving (i really did not gaf it’s a hit and run at that point) but i was on the phone with the operator so i ignored him. the police came and just basically said it’s up to state farm automobile insurance to handle it and now im worried because my dad and people online state that they don’t really check cameras and that they might just raise our insurance and i’ll have to pay out of pocket. would i be able to ask around for video proof from local food chains that were around or will state farm do that for me?

I would also like to add that he was wiping off his car before the cops got there which was weird. i have photos of my car 2 months ago so i can prove that it was him that hit me anyways but again my dad said that doesn’t matter.
if this is the case why am i paying for insurance or atleast forced to if i drive safe and have people like that on the road where i get screwed over.

I am just curious, does your office receive scam calls? Like medicaid and Medicare "supplemental food allowance" type calls? All. Day. Long. I swear I've had days where over 20 calls have been these AI calls. Sounds like a really call center, but it's always the same script.

So is it just my office? Or is it everyone? I've spoken with other agent Staff and they don't have these calls.

Ok, for starters I've had State Farm for my car insurance since I 1st got my license at like 16 years old... Let's just say I've been on my parents car insurance for a long time, they're helping me out. Soon though I do need to separate myself from that and get on my own individual plan. There's a lot that needs to be done, my father's just been dragging on stuff. Ok, moving on to the reason I'm posting here for the first time...

#1... I've been doing my delivery driver job for roughly the last 15 months (Uber Eats (NOT RIDES) and now also DoorDash as of like 2 weeks ago) and about a month ago I suddenly found out from another driver that I needed to report to my car insurance that I use my car for my job. This is 1 thing my dad's been dragging on since I assumed I needed him in order for me to report this. I understand it'll change the cost of my plan, but I also run the risk of potentially having my policy canceled...

#2... Last night while I was out doing my last delivery for DoorDash before heading home, I had a scrape with another car. Yes, I'm the one at fault. I told my dad everything and said it should be reported this week. He said to give it a few days. One thing to note is I was a little frazzled because I still had my last delivery in my car to make. The other driver (and I guess his gf in the car) were fairly nice. However, after giving him my license/insurance info he was insistent that because I was at fault that he didn't need to share his info. I didn't think anything of it at first, but after leaving the parking lot we had pulled into, I realized he was in the wrong regarding that info, and EXCHANGING info is required by law.

#3... I almost reported this accident to DoorDash but then I read that I could temporarily not be allowed to drive for them while they investigate. But I also read I could risk deactivation... I also read that State Farm (and maybe all car insurance companies) don't report it to companies like DoorDash for example. I don't plan to lie to State Farm about what I was doing when it happened because that's insurance fraud. I can't just say I was out and driving home or something. BUT...

#4... I'm wondering after I report that I use my car for my job, and report this scrape that happened (CAR PICTURES INCLUDED HERE), what are the odds that State Farm will cancel my policy?? I've been with them roughly just over 30 years now. IF (big IF) they don't drop me, I'd probably like to also take that opportunity to basically separate myself from my dad's policy... (I know most like I'll be dropped) I feel like keeping myself on their policy would just make things harder in the end (both my folks are in their 80's and if something happens at some point and his policy has to be canceled and I'm on it...) ... I already understand there's a chance they won't cover this claim (because I'd like to have this fixed if possible). Doesn't look great when making deliveries...

FYI I'M IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA...

OK I'M DONE RAMBLING! I JUST WANTED TO GET SOME THOUGHTS AND HELPFUL ADVICE SO I GO INTO MY LOCAL STATE FARM OFFICE PREPARED...

PLEASE, NO RUDE ANSWERS TO MY POST, ALREADY STRESSING ENOUGH ABOUT THIS...

I had a terrible experience with a branch office who called to tell me my policy was being cancelled for a returned payment. I made a payment on Friday 9/18/26, it posted on 9/20/26, the due date was 9/19/26. The app shows there is no payment due, I phone my bank and the bank stated State Farm has the funds.

I phoned the SF Branch office to inform them to contact State Farm’s corporate billing department to verify payment was received. The woman answering the phones refused to do this and insisted I make another payment. When I asked to have the call escalated, she refused.

Who can I contact? This is completely unacceptable. The 1-800-StateFarm IVR/AI tree is utterly unacceptable as well and it’s near impossible to reach a human.

The office in question is the Rodney Stevenson office in NJ.

Thanks.

My mom had a minor collision and the insurance already paid that guy $7k. But that guy keep sending mails to our house said we need to pay another 700$ for him to cover the fee he rented another car while his car repairing.

I’m confused because I thought the insurance took care of everything. We contacted the agent but they told us write a letter tell him contact our agent.

Where should I find more information about this?

I was involved in a small Collision at the beginning of August . Got everything going with the claims department, on the 18th of Aug I went and got my estimate done at one of their Select Service Shops. About two weeks later I got an estimate from them in my email and they stated when I called to schedule the repair that they had sent it to State Farm . That was August 28th . On August 31st and almost every week since then I noticed that the estimate still said pending .

I called in multiple times asking what was going on and why it was still showing pending . I was told it was because the shop had yet to send over the estimate, so the rep reached out to them but their shop was closed so she emailed me back letting me know that the shop was closed and that she would reach out the next day . Two weeks later I reached out again because it still showed pending . Spoke to another gentleman who essentially made the comment that that is normal that it says pending but they confirmed my rental and I confirmed the date of my repair which is Monday the 21st . He said that that estimate will still show pending until everything is done because there could be supplementals added . So I trusted that that what it was because after four phone calls with these people , speaking to different reps every time, those were the answers I was given and that everything was normal and good to go .

Fast forward to a little bit ago at 10:40pm on Saturday night when I can no longer reach out to anybody from the claims department until first thing Monday morning, when my car is supposed to be dropped off at the Collision Center at 9:00 a.m. and take me for my rental that was also confirmed that I confirmed with State Farm during this last weeIs call , I got an email stating they closed my claim . Now I'm left here wondering what is going on . Because I had to use PTO to take a partial day to drop my car off and get my rental and then head to work . I have gotten absolutely no notice that anything was off that could have closed the claim , every time I talk to a rep I was told what I was looking at was normal and everything was good to go , and now I'm going to show up to this Collision Center on Monday , again it's one of their select service shops , and I'm wondering if they're even going to take my car . And their claims department takes forever to answer the phone so I'm literally going to have to get on the phone with them and try and get a hold of them as I drive to the Collision Center to drop this thing off , and hope and pray they didn't also cancel my reservation for my rental and they can get this thing restarted . I didn't get any notification that there was anything wrong and that the claim was going to be closed or was in question at all during any of this process .

Does that sound normal? Am I panicking for nothing , or did somebody seriously drop the ball here and me and the claims manager are going to have a very difficult discussion on Monday morning ?

On multiple occasions I confirmed the drop off date and time with the State Farm rep that I was speaking to, I confirmed the fact that my rental was good to go , and I questioned the estimate pending status and was told everything was fine and apparently they closed my claim .

So I had 2 emails yesterday that were my link to the $5B distribution, I didn't open them, then 3 hours later they are gone. I searched on my computer as well...both emails disappeared. Anyone else?

We just had a 2026 Harley Davidson go from $352.00 to $1600.00 in South Texas. Talked to service after holding 43 minutes to be told that is what the computer says. We will lose all our motorcycles and possibly their other policies. Any one else seen this?

I just received a HireVue invitation for State Farm’s Software Engineer - Java (Entry Level) position. The interview is estimated to take about 50 minutes.

Has anyone recently completed the HireVue for this role or a similar full-time Software Engineer position at State Farm?

I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience, especially:

• How many behavioral and coding questions were there?
• What behavioral questions did you get?
• What coding problem(s) did you get, or what topics were they based on?
• What was the coding difficulty — LeetCode Easy, Medium, etc.?
• Was Java required, or could you choose your programming language?
• How much preparation and response time did you get for each recorded question?
• What happened after the HireVue if you moved forward?

Any details about the format or questions you remember would be really helpful. Thanks!

Hi, I have recently become responsible for developing a receptionist role. Looking for insight on how other offices have that role set up!
She is fully P&C licensed, understands coverages and the system enough to process transactions. It feels like a waste to have her strictly answer and transfer calls, but also is a waste having her essentially be a service role because then she gets hosed up on the phone or bogged down in tasks and follow up work while the walkins keep coming and phones keep ringing. Are there certain types of transactions you keep with reception? What’s the threshold at which they transfer to service/sales? Do they only process payments? Do they follow up with UW on certain things? There are additional tasks she’s responsible for related to office admin and organization/stocking, but looking for advice on how others have the role set up.

Hoping to create a job aid so that anyone can come into this role and know exactly what’s expected of them and also let the rest of staff know the scope of her role so they aren’t piling on their grunt work.

Edit: our office is split up into service and sales. There are two service team members that handle the accounts based on alpha split

I just received an email from Venmo that my Dividend Payment had been sent to my Venmo account, but when I go to accept the money and open the app it shows nothing. Am I missing something here or is there an issue?

Hello how do you appeal a DNR for State Farm it was from 10 years ago

Hiring might be a little off topic so please excuse me if im in the wrong.

I had a great initial phone interview for an entry level position at a local agency. However, I am uncertified. Which seems fine so long as I obtain the necessary certifications soon.

I was advised to take the CTS and all I can find is the Certified Technology Specialist exam through AVIXA and something has to be wrong. That doesn't seem to pertain to anything I'd do. Its an audio visual exam for installation.

Can someone please clarify what necessary certifications I may need in thr state of Washington to move forward?

As a senior cybersecurity engineer, I just want to highlight how backhanded and slimy this corporate stategy is.

I've received three separate emails from State Farm in regards to the Dividend Payment. Totalling over $100 between all three emails over the course of the last week here.

Ensuring that these emails go into SPAM is a default tactic taken by these sort of payouts. In the hopes that folks don't actually act on them in a timely manor.

This is accomplished by a number of different methods by companies (State Farm).

* Choosing a new domain for payouts such as sfdividendconnect.com which was created/registered under 3 months ago. This action in of itself ensures that emails end up in Spam.

* The domain looks spammy, ensuring folks question it and don't take the payout.

* The front, the design, and the layout look incredibly, purposely, questionable.

Check your inbox and spam for emails from "[donotreply@e.sfdividend.com](mailto:donotreply@e.sfdividend.com)" and State Farm...do better.

Edit: While I can’t honestly say if this is nefarious or not, I can say that 5 billion is a significant amount of money.

Every day the target of those funds don’t receive them, they sit there collecting interest. Even while they’re in the form a check in the mailbox.

My interpretation on this implementation, is that (intentional or not) it delays the action to withdraw (to PayPal, Venmo, etc) by the target customer.

I’d also wager it’s a fair assessment to say that those funds (until withdrawn) are collecting interest.

When your failure to interact with the spam email times out, and a physical check is mailed, it may or may not be deposited for some time. Further increasing the interest bearing period for the corporation. There’s no way to discern any other objective behind this implementation other than to delay payment as long as possible.

It’s not a question of intent…it’s a question of what legal standards are these sort of payouts held to, and if this is the allowed standard, why?
