Behavioral Technical

I had a pleasant and friendly interview with their controller. He started by introducing himself and explaining the staff accountant position. After that, I discussed my background and experience. Unfortunately, I think my nervousness affected my answers, as they didn't meet expectations, and I didn't advance to the next stage. Despite not moving forward, it was still a very positive experience talking with their controller.

Behavioral

The interview itself was really nice. Great vibe, really positive experience. There was no HR involvement which I think really slowed down the process because the direct report was too bogged down with their job responsibilities to keep the hiring process moving along. I was then left on read with absolutely no updates for about two months. I followed up multiple times and received either a wishy washy response or no response at all. Finally was told an offer had been accepted by someone else. Pretty disappointed with how they handled the whole process post interview, which I had thought went really positively. Goes to show why HR departments need to be part of the hiring process to keep communication open and not leave people hanging for so long.

The interview was long and exhaustive, but the interviewers (a panel of 3 senior administrators) kept a very calm, casual attitude throughout. I was asked to perform a variety of simple administrative tasks, which was actually a fun experience. In any other scenario this would have freaked a candidate out, but the interviewers were so easy going that it was not that threatening. Overall a very positive interview experience.

The interview process was pretty standard. I met with a panel of my future colleagues and one other staff member I wouldn't be working with. They asked the general questions asked during the interview such as the dreaded "Tell me about yourself..." Then they asked about my prior work and education experience in relation to the job I was interviewing for. Nothing really out of the ordinary.
