Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
Had a phone call with the recruiter which was easygoing and laid back. The call was set up quickly after I submitted my application. Make sure to bring questions to ask.
Quick online interview to start, just prompts no real person there. Following that there is an phone call with a sales manager. After this I had to recuse myself because I took another job. Good people
First round interview was video recordings of yourself. Not difficult questions as they were all situational/behavioral but slightly unnatural to just speak to a camera if you don’t practice for it
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself. Why you want to work for the company. Tell about a time you gave exceptional customer service
The interview was more informal than anything else and with regional manager. He seemed quick to judge my experience in the industry (2yrs); which is certainly enough for an Associate Role. Nonetheless, it didn't feel like it would be a good fit for me so I took myself out of the process later on that week.
