Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at HSN.
Intern
The interviewers were professional and helpful. They answered my emails quickly and were transparent about the job. They were easy to talk to and didn't waste my time.
- What are your long term goals?
Intern
I applied online in September and had a video screen. Then, in November, I had a face-to-face interview with a 6-person panel. It was comfortable and straightforward. Everyone was friendly and asked simple questions. It's good to know about the company beforehand. You should express your interests; there are lots of opportunities to grow.
- How have you handled conflict with coworkers?
- Can you describe a previous project?
Intern
I went through 3 rounds of interviews with HSN. The first was digital and super quick and simple. I received an invitation to do a phone interview with HR within a week after submitting the interview. The phone interview went smoothly and I followed up with a thank you, I received an invitation for the 3rd interview the next day. Then came the last interview....first off, I was scheduled for a video interview with the HR rep and they called an hour before I was scheduled. I proceeded interviewing with a buyer and a merchandising trainer and I thought it went over smoothly. Again, I followed up with thank yous and one responded thanking me for my time. However, I never received a phone call from them and they never responded to my email wondering about their decision as a candidate. Personally, I was offended that I did not even receive a rejection email so that i would know their decision after putting so much time and effort with their company.
- What makes you want to work in the retail industry?
- Describe a situation where you encountered a problem and how you overcame it.
