First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at IPIC.
Sales Manager
I applied online and then the national sales manager emailed me to schedule an interview. He messed up the calendar invite, so our time zones were off, and he called me hours before the time shown on my invite. The interview ran 30 minutes over, and it was mostly him talking. He wouldn't give me a specific salary or commission number, just told me to look up sales manager salaries in my area and that they pay around that. After the call, I felt like I wasn't a good fit for him or the company, so I withdrew from the process.
- Could you describe your sales philosophy?
- Which companies are in the vicinity of the theater?
Theater Manager
Applied on the company website, then went through an industry recruiter, and had an interview set up within a week. I met with the Regional Manager onsite for the location I was applying for. After about an hour interview, I was approached with a brief phone screen by the company's HR department. From there I was informed to complete a background check and online personality questionnaire. Within another week, an offer was made. Fairly simple process.
- In your own words, what is hospitality?
- Can you describe how hospitality differs from customer service?
- Could you detail your managerial duties in past roles?
Unit Manager
The interview process had two parts. First, there was a phone call which was a standard HR interview. Then, I had a one-on-one meeting at the Theater with the General Manager. This was a casual chat where he talked about the company, the job, and the irregular work hours for managers due to late movie screenings. He also asked about my work history and short-term objectives. He inquired about my previous earnings towards the end. Both the GM and HR seemed very focused on customer service. I didn't get the job, but I really liked the people and how the company handled the process.
- Can you share your work experience background?
- What are your objectives right now?
- What do you plan to achieve in the future?
Server
I talked to a manager who looked over my resume. He asked me some stuff about my background and if I knew about iPic Entertainment. He also asked about my availability before I left. I was told they would call me back in a few days. But then I got an email saying they weren't going to move forward with a second interview.
- Can you tell me what you know about iPic Entertainment? Have you ever visited one of their theaters?
- Have you been to an iPic theatre before?
