Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at The Children's Place.
Design Manager
I went through multiple rounds of interviews with folks from the department and also did a big design test. The whole thing took about a month. The HR person was nice but kept making it seem like I was gonna get the job. After I interviewed with a VP, I had to ask about the status. They didn't offer me the job because they wanted more management experience, which is something they could have figured out way earlier. It felt like a waste of my time. Just a heads up to graphic designers applying to TCP: they don't recognize good design talent and give false hope.
- Tell me about your experience with designing social media campaigns.
Assistant Manager
I put in my application online and had to do an assessment. Then I was called in to interview with the ASM. After that, the SM called me in for another interview and said I met the management criteria, so they set up a phone interview with the DM.
- Tell me about your most significant accomplishment in a previous job within the last five years.
- What fueled your passion for your prior role?
Assistant Manager
The hiring manager described their expectations and the daily duties. A decision was promised by the end of the week, but then changed to mid-week. When I called on Monday, I was told, 'I told you, if I didn't call you, then we moved on.' This contradicts the mid-week decision timeline. It seems like a promotion from within was already decided, making the process a waste of time.
- Are you okay with physically demanding or messy work?
- How do you adapt to changes?
