Entrevista
I was asked to take an aptitude and personality test (15 minutes each) online, to be completed on my own time. About a week later, I received an email saying the next step was to complete a one-way video interview. I had a few days to do the video (again on my own time) -- in this instance, it was five questions long, with one minute to read each question, one minute to think, and three minutes to respond. It was definitely challenging, but having a minute to digest the question before speaking really helped.
After another week, I was asked to come in to do an in-person interview with four members of the team (of various different levels). I met with each person for half an hour. Each member of the team asked me about a different topic (the first was a role-play scenario, the second asked about my technical expertise, the third wanted to see my work, the fourth was more high-level about the job and my experience). It was a really thorough process and I felt that I got a really good sense for the team and role.
In general, the process was super organized and clear. When I got to the in-person interview stage, the Bullhorn recruiter I worked with was really helpful, and got back to me quickly any time I had a question. I was told I would be notified within a week after the in-person interview, and received an offer just a few days later. I really appreciated that they were true to their word, as so many companies don't stick to timelines.
Bullhorn seems like a great place to work, and while challenging, I have only positive things to say about the recruiting process. I ultimately turned down the offer in favor of a position that was more aligned with my background, but Bullhorn seems like a great place to work.

I applied to Bullhorn online. After a week a received an email with a multiple choice questionnaire in two parts. First part was behavioral questions, while the second part was math, statistics and grammar. The whole task was timed and you had a few seconds to answer, you could be out of time and not complete it. A week after that I was informed that I passed to the next phase which was a one-time video interview. It was the most awful experience I have ever had. The fact that while answering I was looking at myself, like talking to the mirror, made me very uncomfortable. Instead of focusing on the question I was thinking of how I look. It was very difficult for me to concentrate and give the answers that I wanted to give. And the questions were not for an entry level designer. They were much more advanced.
For opportunities like our Entry-level UX where we are lucky to have so much interest, we use a SparkHire for video interviews so that we are able to give a larger number of candidates an opportunity to interview. I'm sorry to hear that this experience was not a good one for you. I'm happy to take a look at our questions and revisit them with the Hiring Managers; would you let me know which ones you felt were too advanced? S.greenwell@bullhorn.com.
