First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship.
Director of Research
It was a very thorough process. I first spoke with HR, then I was given a performance task to complete. Finally, I met with the C-suite staff. The questions they asked were original and extensive. They seem like a wonderful group to work for.
- In three words, how would you describe your personal brand if you were a brand?
Development Manager
HR Mike set up a phone interview. About two weeks later, the hiring manager in Chicago did the same. A month after my first chat with Mike, I met in person with the hiring manager, HR, the strategic officer, and the database manager. The CEO had to cancel on us last minute. About two and a half weeks after that, after a bunch of positive emails with HR, the strategic guy, and the hiring manager, I got a call saying they decided to go with someone from within the company. Turns out, they prefer internal candidates because NFTE likes to help their current employees grow.
- This is like dating. We want to know all your warts and wrinkles. We want to really get to know you. Tell me, what do you think? Do you see yourself here?
- How do you see yourself fitting in with this organization?
Intern
The interview took about 30 minutes. I wore business professional attire, but the interview felt casual and comfortable. Two Los Angeles team members interviewed me at the same time.
- What do you consider your greatest weakness, and what steps do you take to address it?
- Tell us about a time you experienced failure and how you managed to resolve the situation.
- Could you share your history with NFTE and explain how you learned about our organization?
Program Manager
I had a phone interview first, and then a two-part in-person interview. The first part was with the team, which seemed really great, but the second part, a one-on-one, really turned me off. The person I met with was aggressive and rude. He accused me of not having my resume dates line up with what I was saying, but he was actually reading my resume incorrectly. When I pointed this out, he just warned me that they would verify my employment dates. I didn't like being accused of lying.
- Can you explain the shorter work periods (1-3 years) listed on your resume?
