      Marketing Assistant Interview

      Sep 12, 2011
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at COMSOL in Aug 2011

      Interview

      I met with two marketing managers. The first marketing manager sat me down and asked me questions regarding my former employee. She provided great detail about the position and the company. A couple turn offs were that 1) The interview was in the later part of the day so the interview felt rushed. 2) When I asked why the position was open, she stated that the person in the position was not really qualified for the position and sort of "fell into it" by chance. Doesn't really make you feel great about the company's hiring tactics. She did provide me with positive feedback regarding my qualifications saying that I would be able to jump into the position and get acclimated quickly which was a plus, since she was looking to fill the position quickly. I met with second marketing manager and she was very friendly. The general questions were average for an interview: why are you the person for this position? what are your strengths/weaknesses? etc. I never heard back.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at COMSOL (Grenoble) in Nov 2014

      Interview

      J'ai reçu un mail m'expliquant que ma candidature avait été retenue et que l'entretien aurait lieu tel jours à telle heure. Pas possibilité de changer l'heure et la date de l'entretien. Arrivée sur place, nous étions environ 25 candidats, tous issus de parcours différents. En première partie, une présentation générale de l'entreprise, avec les dirigeants et l'assistante marketing actuelle. Ensuite, un entretien personnelle de 10 minutes (un peu court à mon goût pour réellement convaincre et se vendre convenablement. Et enfin un petit exercice qui consistait en la rédaction d'une lettre de motivation. Personnellement, je n'ai pas saisi l'intérêt de l'exercice. Voulaient-ils être impressionnés par une lettre de motivation originale ou souhaitaient-ils simplement évaluer notre niveau de français? En bref, beaucoup de concurrence, pas beaucoup de temps consacré aux candidats. Je pense que j'aurais préféré qu'ils réduisent le nombre de candidat et qu'ils étendent la durée de l'entretien personnelle à 20/30 minutes?! Par contre, les deux dirigeants et l'assistante marketing sont très sympathiques, et ils essayent de nous mettre à l'aise le plus possible. L'ambiance dans l'entreprise parait excellente.
