Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at H&R Block.
Manager
It was fine but they made it clear multiple times how crazy the hours were and how "this isn't the right job for everyone..." I went through three interviews via Microsoft teams, but wasn't available during the day/time they wanted the final interview. The DM started BLOWING up my phone, multiple texts, emails, even calls, saying "its just 15 mins, just 15 mins." He would not stop, continuing to send email invites during times I was not available and just telling me to "take a break and just do it." Well, its not about it only being a 15 minute interview. Its about the lack of respect for my personal time. It gave me an insight to how this person would behave as my direct supervisor. No thanks.
- What's your approach to recruiting new clients?
Office Manager
The interview process was pretty standard. It started with a recruiter call, and then I had to create a business plan, similar to what you'd do in college. I had to dress professionally for it. Then, I went over the business plan and had to explain how I'd help the company reach its goals. This was kind of like an onsite presentation.
- Tell me how I would handle a situation with an employee that was not following procedure.
- In going over the business plan I had to determine what that office did well.
- What could they improve in?
Office Manager
You gotta do all the applications online first. If HR thinks you're a good fit, they'll ask you to sign a release for a background check. If you pass that, you'll have an interview with the District Manager where they ask situational questions like 'What would you do in this situation?'. It's a pretty straightforward process. If they pick you, they'll call you and tell you to check your email for two instructional emails to finish all the hiring paperwork.
- If a client is being disruptive and confrontational in the office, what would you do?
