First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Copper River Family of Companies.
Project Manager
The interview was super easy and conducted over Teams. The person interviewing me asked just a couple of questions. It was just one interviewer and it was over pretty fast. They mainly wanted to know about salary expectations and my understanding of the role.
- Can you tell me about your salary expectations?
- What do you know about this job?
Program Analyst
The interview process was straightforward and pleasant. I had a great conversation with the Program Manager for the role I was targeting. They arranged a phone interview with the government stakeholders, which was also a positive experience. During this call, they elaborated on the position's responsibilities and the desired candidate profile. I was quite impressed with how the company was represented and feel confident about their capabilities as a contractor. Although I was keen on working with and for Copper River, the offered salary was slightly below my expectations.
- Can you introduce yourself and highlight the experience you possess that aligns well with this role?
Recruiting Coordinator
Started with a phone screen, then an in person interview pretty soon after. Talked to two recruiters and the HR Director. They asked about my background, what I was looking for, and why I was interested. The HR Director asked me what was wrong with me since I seemed 'too good to be true'.
- You seem too good to be true; what's actually wrong with you?
- What's up?
- Do you have a child or a dog, or anything that will take you away from work?
Network Security Engineer
Copper River recruiters reached out about a network/network security engineer role at a client site. Each time I inquired about salary, they either ignored the question or directed me to another recruiter. This second recruiter would then try to schedule an interview without discussing compensation. The recruiting manager emailed me when I stopped responding, but still avoided answering my salary question. Repeatedly evading these questions is usually a bad sign. While companies need to be profitable, skilled employees also need to be paid.
- Have you considered that intelligent and skilled individuals capable of designing, building, and troubleshooting complex networks might not be easily tricked into accepting low pay?
- If you did manage to hire someone underpaid, how long would you expect them to stay, especially considering the company's negative reviews?
- Recruiters avoid answering questions about compensation and the scope of work.
