Behavioral

The interview process was very easy and smooth. Both managers were friendly and easy to speak with. It was a bit much to have to meet with both managers, especially considering the salaries (no commission for a lot of work), which should be simpler.

Behavioral Other

My interview involved a phone screen, followed by an in-person meeting. They also sent a typing test and requested writing samples. I decided not to move forward because the writing assignment was overwhelming. It required me to create about 5 job postings based on notes from a client meeting. The notes clearly had authentic mistakes, like spelling errors and sensitive client info. The office only had two employees when I interviewed, and while they seemed nice, they were clearly swamped. It felt like they were trying to exploit my experience and time, not to mention the ethical concerns of using job postings drafted by candidates.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was quite thorough, involving meetings with both the Director and the President. They were both very professional, and their questions and the way they handled things ultimately led me to choose SmartTalent over other offers. I really feel like this is a career opportunity, not just a job.

The application process was all online and moved quickly, which was a nice change from what you usually see. This temporary employer had a bunch of different job openings they were willing to talk about, which made me feel good about working there.
