Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group.
Stage Manager
The interview process was very efficient. Cirque is good at figuring out who will perform well and also work well with the current crew, which is what they look for in resident shows.
- Tell me about your experience resolving conflicts quickly.
Stage Manager
Beyond the typical behavioral questions, Cirque often asks some really out-there questions. For example, 'if you were a color, what would you be and why' or 'if you could have dinner with any 3 people, who would it be and why.' These are usually questions you can't really prepare for.
- Describe a time you made a poor judgment and explain how you managed the situation.
- What color would you be and why?
- Who would you invite to have dinner with, and why?
Stage Manager
The phone interview was a bit unexpected; it felt more like a personality assessment than a typical job interview. There were no questions directly related to the job responsibilities. Instead, the focus was on personal preferences, like asking about my favorite color. Despite the unusual nature of the initial call, everyone I interacted with from the company was very friendly, and I genuinely enjoyed the experience of speaking with them.
- Could you share your favorite color?
