First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at WDS.
Brand Ambassador
The interview questions were pretty straightforward. They asked about my sales background and how I've worked in teams before. I was also asked to demonstrate how I would sell a product. They gave me a scenario to work with, and I had to add my own unique approach to show I was confident and capable of selling on the spot.
- Can you share an instance of your past sales experience?
- Describe your experience working as part of a team.
- Imagine you need to sell a product; how would you approach it?
Software Engineer
They brought me into the building and alternated interviewers. All the questions felt rigged, like a typical 'I'm smarter than you' interview. None of the questions really let me show off any creativity. I'd say about 40% were kind of trick questions. The feedback I got on the questions and the interaction was bad. The place looked pretty run down, too. Their kitchen was dirty, and they didn't have any free drinks. The area where the developers work looked trashy, even though other parts of the company had nice offices. The other developers didn't seem very skilled either.
- Can you create an algorithm for generating palindromic words?
CIO
After two interviews with an agent and board members in London, which were both good experiences, we looked at the fit both ways for three hours and all was well. I was chosen for a shortlist of two for an interview with the CEO in Poole. The date was set but cancelled by the company the day before for both candidates. I put much effort and time into the process. The CEO failed to respond to subsequent communication. Not impressed, sorry.
- How have you dealt with the company's current condition based on your experience?
- How would you approach the company's aspirations based on your experience?
Call Center Agent
After submitting the online application, if you can read and speak English, you'll be called in for an interview. First, you'll take a skills test for software and a customer service scenario test. Your computer knowledge will also be assessed. If you pass these, you'll meet with a recruiter who will either hire you on the spot or let you go. The people seemed nice, but the office itself was run-down and dated. The work culture felt chaotic and unprofessional.
- How do you feel about the core values displayed on the poster behind you?
