First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at WS Development.
Marketing Director
It was a very long process with way too many interviews. They also took a really long time to get back to me. I had to create a marketing plan. I did meet a lot of interesting people, but in the end, the culture wasn't a great fit.
- Could you assess the property and develop a marketing plan?
Director
It was pretty thorough, maybe a bit too long. I had an initial chat with a recruiter, and then they set up a bunch of interviews with different people on the team. Had some really good talks. The whole thing took a few months.
- What's your hypothetical approach to managing a project?
- Can you describe how you would work on a project?
- How would you handle a project hypothetically?
Marketing Manager
I had a 30-minute screening call that started right on time. The HR person was good with communication before the call. They asked about my background and why I want this job. It was fine, but they seemed annoyed when I asked basic questions like why the role is open, about the company culture, and the next steps. They also mentioned a take-home assignment to create a marketing plan for the property, which seems like a lot of work for the pay range.
- Can you tell me about your background?
- What makes you interested in this specific role?
Leasing Representative
It starts with a typical recruiter phone screen. After that, it can be a pretty long process, so don't get discouraged. I interviewed with the SVP of Leasing, 3 Leasing Directors, the EVP of Leasing, the CEO, and the CIO. In total, there were 8 rounds, which seems like a lot, but the company is a close-knit group and they like to be very thorough. The whole thing took 3.5 weeks from start to finish.
- The questions were more of a conversation about the business rather than standard interview questions.
- If you are up-to-date on retail and fashion trends, as well as the real estate aspects of the industry, you'll be able to answer these questions.
- This section was a conversation about the business. If you're tuned into the world of retail and fashion as well as the real estate side of the business; the would be questions are answered as such.
