Average interview that leans on the STAR format. I started with a phone interview with the corporate recruiter after applying online. The corporate recruiter was nice, more thorough in email than over the phone.
From there, I went into a 1-on-1 interview with the director of operations. Looking for more of a personality fit than anything on the resume, in my opinion. Was told that the decision to hire an individual would be 51% the team, 49% the director of operations.
The next interview led me to a 3 hr interview that consisted of a shadowing of a recruiter, and 4-6 interviews in 30-45 minute blocks with the account managers. Again, most questions they ask are of the STAR variety (Tell me a time when..., What is the biggest failure of your life?, etc). I have nothing really bad to say about anyone here, but this second interview is needlessly lengthy for many questions that are asked in the same way.
The final interview brought me back with a 1-1 interview with the director of operations for about 30 minutes. Was a little surprised that more thorough questions were asked after going through two interviews. Had a good feeling when I left, but as more days went by with no updates, got less confident, and I figured that if they really wanted me, they would have made an offer at the end of the interview.
Was told at the end of the interview week that the team was going in a different direction. OK, totally acceptable...but I feel that after two interviews with most on the team, that should be enough time to snuff out the candidate. Really did feel that a final interview leads a person on in the wrong way.
Additionally, not sure how much the company is "growing" after hearing two conflicting statements in my interview process. Could just be a soft way of letting me down, but the corporate recruiter stated in the rejection email that the office was overstaffed, while the director of operations kept saying Prolink is growing and in great shape and his office is constantly looking to expand and do more things. If it is overstaffed, I'd rather not work for a six year old company that could be on the verge of seeing some tough times and layoffs.
All in all, solid people, seems to be an OK organization, but the interview process is much too long and the communication near the end seemed to go against what the company promotes as one of their key values---honesty and consistency.
