First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Cornerstone Caregiving.
Business Operations Manager
I went through about 4 rounds of interviews and everyone was extremely nice throughout. They flew me to Texas to their headquarters for final round of interviews. I was told if you made it that far unless you really mess up, the job would be mine. I thought the interviews went well but was informed I did not get the job. While I cannot say anything bad about the company or its people, I all but begged for feedback so I would know what went sideways, I could not get a response. It would have been helpful moving forward.

Operating Director
Had a 30 min phone screen with the recruiter, then a 30 min zoom with the manager. Next step is an in person interview in Texas. I didn't feel super comfortable with some of their processes. They asked for links to all my social media accounts which felt weird and I'm not sure if it's legal. They also ask for references very early, before the second interview, and say they will contact them. This feels too soon because I haven't even decided if the job is a good fit yet. Also thought it was really strange they want you to do a five week training program before deciding on an offer. I was told this role is a 24/7 commitment, available always, including weekends, and that the job is a total grind.
- What is your understanding of our company and this position, and what drew you to apply?
Operational Director
I went through a few rounds of interviews for this role. The recruiter was nice, and I even did a final in-person interview in Texas. But, the hiring process had some weird parts. They asked for all my social media handles and personal questions about my family and if I was married or had kids. This happened during my chat with the Head of Business Development, and I'm not sure if that's okay. The final interview was rough. I traveled all the way there, and the interviewer seemed totally checked out. He cut me off, looked at his iPad the whole time, and seemed like he'd already decided against me. He even said he was worried I had 'too much experience,' even though they recruited me. I'm fine not getting the job, but I felt really disrespected and let down by how it all went down. People interviewing deserve better treatment and questions that are actually relevant.

The hiring process generally involves a few steps. First, you'll apply by sending in your resume and a cover letter. Then, a recruiter or hiring manager will look over your application, and some companies might give you a quick test or survey. After that, there's usually an initial chat over the phone or video with HR or a recruiter to see if you have the right experience and skills and seem like a good fit. This might include some basic questions about your behavior or technical know-how. Next, you'll have main interviews, which could be with one person or a group. This is where they dive deeper into your experience, what you know, and how you handle problems. They might ask behavioral questions using the STAR method, give you technical challenges, or present case studies. If the job needs it, there could be a written test, a coding task, or a practical exercise. Finally, you might have a final interview with higher-ups to check if you fit the company culture and discuss your future goals and what you expect. They'll also probably check your references and do a background check. If everything looks good, you'll get a job offer, and you can talk about the salary, benefits, and contract details.
