First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Third Coast Events.
Marketing Associate
It was pretty chill, they seemed more interested in my personality and proof of past successes. The interviews were on Zoom. The first one was short, covering the company and a bit about me. The second one dove a little deeper into my background and included a presentation that answered most of the questions I might have had. The third round got more serious, where we discussed the nitty-gritty details, and there was a possibility of getting a job offer. It's a direct sales role, but if that's your thing, they have a solid program with good chances to advance and earn well right from the start.
- Can you tell me about your previous role and what your ideal next position would be?
Public Relations Assistant
I went through three rounds of interviews for this role. The people were nice, but I later found out the job postings were misleading. The actual job involves working in a Costco or Sam's Club booth, setting up displays, and trying to sell beauty products to shoppers, which felt like a pushy sales role. Despite going through all three rounds and getting an offer, I declined it after researching the company and finding many reviews with similar red flags. A website even listed them as untruthful and involved in scams. As a recent graduate, I felt they targeted people like me who are desperate for a job, which I found unethical given the effort put into earning a degree. The pay was only $8 an hour, making the whole situation not worth it. They seem to want young, inexperienced employees for this in-store sales job. I hope this review helps others avoid this situation.
- What marketing strategies do you think our company uses?
Event Planning Assistant
The interview was easy and I was invited for a second interview but never scheduled it because I was disappointed in the job that was being offered. The people who work there were very nice, so this is nothing against them. However, no matter what job you apply for you are applying for a “marketing”/sales position. I say “marketing” because you are technically marketing for different businesses. PR and marketing are not the same thing. They go hand in hand, but they are not the same. It’s frustrating to see they still try to get applicants using job titles with PR in them because this is most certainly not a PR firm. (I have emails with the job title showing boutique pr assistant)You will be apart of a sales team, and they will train you to manage a sales team etc. and eventually help you start up your own branch. Which is fine, but that’s not what I was applying to the company for. Very misleading job title. I should have done more research, but the company should not have been so vague for the first impression. Also it was weird to have another person in the room taking notes while the interview was happening. I interviewed quite a while ago, so I’m not sure if this is still a thing for them. I literally felt compelled to write this interview review because I saw they were still offering “PR” jobs.
- What made you want to join our company?
Event Coordinator
After you submit your resume, there's a call to come in for an interview. When you arrive, you'll fill out an application and then wait in the waiting area with a few other people interviewing. The interview itself isn't too long or nerve-wracking. If you do well in the first round, they'll call you within a week for a second interview. This one won't be at the office, but at an offsite location (Sam's Club) where they do demonstrations or events.
