      I applied online. I interviewed at Sunrise Senior Living

      Interview

      The interview process was really easy and didn't take long. The manager who interviewed me was nice and did her part really well. I wasn't able to accept the offer due to another job getting back to me quicker but I would if presented another time.

      Receptionist/Front Desk Interview

      May 15, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      North Vancouver, BC
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Sunrise Senior Living (North Vancouver, BC) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I found the job posting on Craigslist and was asked to come to a hiring fair in Lynn Valley (North Vancouver, BC). 17 people showed up to the interview. We listened to the ED talk about the company and herself for about 45 minutes, then each person was asked to introduce themselves. As it turned out 16 people were applying for care manager positions and I was the only person applying for the receptionist position. As such, they didn't interview me at all, just asked me to come back and fill out hiring paperwork! Awesome! ...except when I returned to accept the job and submit my my TB test and criminal record check, they told me my first shift was the following Thursday. I worked a four hour shift where I filled out the petty cash report, answered the phone, interacted with visitors, got a nametag from the sales manager - basically did the duties of the job. Then after my shift I was handed a piece of paper to sign that said this was a training/observation shift, for which no wages would be paid. I thought it was really underhanded to call it my first shift, have me work for four hours, THEN tell me I wouldn't be paid. The BOC should have been more clear about it beforehand. I said I didn't want to sign the paper, but the BOC told me if I wanted the job I needed to sign it. So I did. That should have been my first indication that the company was shady and underhanded, but I ended up accepting the job. Seven weeks later I ended up leaving Sunrise after they didn't want to pay me for other work I did. The company preys on foreign workers, many of them from the Phillipines, who don't speak English very well and don't know their employee rights. Avoid, avoid, avoid this company. Everything they do regarding the hiring process and treating employees skirts the law and is the very bare minimum at best, and there were certain situations I witnessed regarding the residents that were safety issues that they were deliberately covering up / not reporting. This is not a place you want to be associated with.

      Question 1

      The only questions they asked: are you still interested in the job and can you come back next week to start?
