First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Mitchell Ness.
Account Coordinator
It was a basic two-person interview. I met with the Hiring Manager, who is the owner of the company. I was referred by an existing employee. The new director of the marketing department was looking for someone with a similar drive, someone who was raw talent, willing to listen, and eager to support the growth of the marketing team. I had to complete a writing assignment, which I felt I didn't do well on, but I think my personality made a strong impression.

- What motivates you to apply for this position?
Product Manager
The interview process is really long and there's a lot of internal changes that end up eliminating roles or changing them mid-recruitment. I was contacted within a few days of applying to schedule a 30 min phone screen for the next week. Then I had an hour virtual interview with two hiring managers about 2 weeks later. I followed up the next week and was told no decision was made. I then followed up probably 2-3 more times over the next two months. They said they were hiring for a new dept lead and all their focus was on filling that role, so they didn't have time to move this position along any faster. I eventually received an auto rejection email and was told the new dept lead they hired decided to go in another direction with this job. I interviewed for a couple of roles, and in another situation the hiring manager didn't respond to me for almost 3 weeks after the call because she was on vacation. I'm not sure why they didn't have someone backing that recruiter up, or at least an auto email to let me know they were out. While I didn't think the interview itself was that difficult, there's a lot of internal chaos going on that drags it out. Expect it to take months with possibly weeks between communication.
- Can you describe your approach to managing competing deadlines?
Software Engineer
The interview process was great. I met with managers of each department and had really in depth conversations on the business. This was important because I was unsure if the job was the right fit for me. After the interview I was confident the company and team were a great match.
