Behavioral Technical

I had 6 interviews over Facetime or phone calls. The people were nice and asked pretty standard questions. It was a lot to do 6 interviews in 20-45 minute blocks. After two weeks, I followed up with no response. After another two weeks (a month total), I followed up again. I was told I wasn't the right fit for one team, but they asked me to interview for another. I declined because I had other offers and didn't want to go through another 6 interviews and wait a month. They seem like great people, but they need to care more about applicants' needs. The interview process can reflect the company.

Behavioral Case

I first met a recruiter at a school career fair. We then set up an interview for later that same afternoon. After that, I had two FaceTime interviews. Finally, I was invited to come to their office in New York. The interviews were mainly behavioral with some situational questions as I got further along. The people interviewing me were super friendly and honest the whole time; I felt like I always knew what was going on and they kept me updated. I didn't get the job in New York, but they did offer me a chance to interview for a spot in Connecticut, though I ended up taking a different job.

Behavioral Other

I found Daversa Partners through my college's career database and sent them my CV/cover letter. One of the directors responded very quickly and set up a Skype interview the next day. The best analogy to this process was like rushing a fraternity again: These guys seemed like they were looking for someone who they'd like to hang out in an office with, but also drink the Kool-Aid, deliver results on limited resources, and be able to handle constant direct feedback regarding performance. The process as a whole consists of a series of Skype interviews with senior employees in the office, followed by an on-site interview later if those went well. They mostly ask behavioral questions.

First phone call was super basic, mostly them talking about the company and role. But then at the in person interview, they'd cut you off. I followed up about the job status and heard nothing back. It's wild because you'd think in recruiting they'd at least respond, like they get networking. It's a bummer I never got a response, even a simple 'no thanks,' because I would have recommended companies to them.
