OneVision Resources Interview Questions
& Process

The first interview was pretty straightforward, about 30-45 minutes. Then there was a second interview, which was a 2.5 hour group session with several employees and other candidates. It felt a bit out of place for a technical support role and would be tough for someone introverted.

The hiring process started with a phone interview with the director of people, where we discussed my background and understanding of OneVision. He shared the company's vision and origin story. Then, he asked some questions about my technical background, not to test me, but to see how comfortable I was talking about the industry. This initial call felt more like a chance for them to get to know me rather than a typical interview. The in-person group interview was the highlight for me. Coming from an Apple retail background, these group settings felt familiar. We did some fun team-building and problem-solving activities and answered some challenging trivia questions. The most nerve-wracking part was illustrating the signal flow of a home network and home theatre on a whiteboard. While my background helped, others might want to prepare for this. Since this role involves a lot of emailing, strong written communication skills are essential. From the initial phone call to the offer, the interview process was one of the best I've experienced. The onboarding that followed was so thorough that even without prior technical skills, I would have acquired them.

I had a phone screen and then was invited to a group interview. There were 5 applicants in a conference room at the OneVision office with the CEO (Joey) and Director of Marketing (Andy). Andy started the meeting by saying it was to get to know us and see how we could interact as a team. We were shown a sample email on a screen and asked to give a thumbs up or thumbs down. It was a round table discussion. Next, we were asked to write an email that OneVision could send out as a blast. After collecting the samples, we were given a break. When we returned, one person from our group was asked to stay, and the rest of us were thanked and let go. They were gracious and I understood their selection. Today I got feedback about my performance. I was told that on the telephone screen I was very knowledgeable and articulate, but seemed more reserved in person. It was very generous of them to give me feedback. However, I purposely let other candidates speak because I figured they were looking for how well we played together. I didn't present a full marketing plan because that wasn't the stated purpose of the group interview. They are a group of very young, talented people with interesting ideas. It's a new company and they don't seem to grasp the hiring process. I'm not sure why I was even considered since I don't have a strong technical background. My strengths are in customer success and digital marketing. It was a unique experience.

I applied via LinkedIn and heard back super fast, like the next day. The first call was really chill, mostly just chatting about the company and the job. Then, I had a group interview which was actually pretty fun and engaging. We were all encouraged to jump in and collaborate. The next step will be individual interviews to get a clearer picture of the responsibilities and to see if it's a good mutual fit. All in all, it was a good experience.
