The interview process began with a phone interview and was planned to include two in-person interviews. After the phone interview, there was about a two-week waiting period before they decided to hire someone from their internal recruitment, instead of external. It seems like COPT has really good values and a strong mission. I'd be open to applying for future jobs in my field and would reach out to their recruiters directly.

The recruiter was super pushy and sold this job to me. I told her my salary requirements and then she came back with this company who wants to pay 49 in base, 8% bonus, and 20% in restricted stock, and they want 5 years of experience. The guy on the phone didn't even have the recruiter's name right and asked if I would be willing to settle for a lower salary than what was on the notes. I took myself out of the running when they told me the salary was non-negotiable. They aren't interested in hiring the best people, they want to cut costs and hire entry level. Restricted stock is typically reserved for executive compensation or a bonus benefit, not a way to get out of paying an analyst 53k when their market value is 65.

The interview process is quite long. You'll have 3 interviews: first, you'll meet with the hiring manager. Second, you'll meet with their boss. Third, you'll meet with HR. If you get to the HR interview, you're probably gonna get the job.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process at COPT for this position included first a phone interview with an in person interview to follow. The in-person interview included meeting with 6 different COPT Employees. Ultimately, I didn't get an offer, but I think COPT has a great set of company values and I would apply again in the future because of that.
