Rockfish Interactive Interview Questions
& Process

Rockfish has an HR team at their home office in AR who reviews all applications and then if selected, a phone interview is scheduled. It was pretty basic and was more about culture, team work, etc. Not very into company and what job would entail. Did a good job explaining culture and people and future of company. At that point, if selected, you go in for an interview. Office is nice and seemed like an energetic place. I wished my interviewer asked me more questions. She tended to tell me about the company and did very little to try to get to know me and my background as it was very similar to the position they were hiring for but wouldn't take the time to get to know me. I interview well, or at least have thought so since been offered jobs in the past from first interview and I tend to stay with companies a while, so not a job hopper who just interviews and then quits. I think the person I interviewed with is no longer there and actually left shortly thereafter. After the interview, I did get a call back from HR letting me know they did not think my skills were a good fit. Although it was disappointing, I cannot begin to tell you how nice this was to have this kind of follow up and was very appreciative. I had applied on a whim and was not in need of a job, so I chalked it up to not the right opportunity for me. Hopefully in other interviews, they asked more about skills and how they could be applied to their company.

I applied to Rockfish online for a Recruiter job. I was surprised to get an email the next day to set up a phone interview! I was really excited because I thought my background, especially my marketing major, fit well with what they do. I know about tech from working at a software firm, and I have experience with SEO, social media, and software development. My first phone interview with one of the two recruiters at the company was great, lasting about 45-50 minutes. The next step was a second phone interview with her colleague about a week later. Both were phone calls since I'm in a different state. The second interview also seemed to go well. It was more structured with specific questions, and I didn't connect as well with this recruiter, but she was nice, and I felt I did a good job. It would have been a great company to work for if I'd gotten an offer. The first recruiter contacted me to say they wanted someone with more experience. I thanked her, and I really think if I had more experience, I would have fit in. I found the Rockfish recruiters to be open, honest, and friendly, just like recruiters should be! I'd interview with them again if they asked.

The interview process went smoothly. It was pretty relaxed and comfortable, only taking about 20 minutes. They asked some basic questions about my resume and personality. They asked about my strengths and weaknesses, and about my previous job experience. They also asked what I could do for the company if I got the internship. I got a call the next week letting me know.

I went through 3 interviews in total. It started with an HR screen, then I met with my manager, and finally, I spoke with leadership. The questions were pretty standard, nothing out of the ordinary. Everyone I met was really nice, and there were no tricky questions. It was a good experience, and I heard back about the job offer within two weeks.
