Entrevista
Submitted my resume on Monday morning and heard back from a recruiter later that day. Had two different 1:1 phone interviews the next day -- one with the recruiter and another with a member of the operations team. They scheduled me to come into the office two days later, where I had four 20-minute interviews in a row. My recruiter had warned me multiple times that I would be asked "outside the box" questions and I should be prepared. I was worried that I would be asked crazy things like how many golfballs could fit in an airplane or how many people use Facebook in Los Angeles on a Thursday at 4:30 -- instead I was just asked personality-based questions like, "What's the nicest thing you've ever done for someone?" Those types of questions can be frustrating because I often feel like I could have answered a thousand different ways, and I get judged on a random answer picked under pressure. Everyone was extremely friendly and smiley, but they aren't very invested in any one candidate, since they bring in many candidates a day to be interviewed and each team member does many interviews. Did not feel liked I'd knocked it out of the park -- and got a phonecall a few days later saying they'd "decided to go in a different direction."

What is something you are trying to work on in yourself?
First there was an HR round (telephonic), then there was an aptitude test which was very easy. They tested your communication skills. Then finally there was an interview with the manager.
First did a all with HR who was a nice guy and seemed to root for me to get the role. However the intereview process sucked. Several interviewers, ranging from aggressive to disinterested. Interviewer would ask you the same question several times over and somehow expect you not to repeat yourself.

A tad bit unconventional to be bluntly honest and a disappointing process. The process proceeded from an overview conversation of the position over the phone that likely served as an initial filtering process. Greeted by some office security guy at a folding table with a pile of name tag to stick on candidates that would ask for name and notify the front desk about 20 feet away. From there would lead to an in office where you would spend approximately an hour on two 30 min Skype interviews followed by a 30 min 1 on 1 interview. The room for the interview can be best described as a closet where you peer out a door that gives you the feeling of waiting in a cubical sized doctor's office waiting room. Questions were not as expected and didn't appear to be very relevant to doing the job and your actual experience and skills. Questions tended to focus on what did you do at prior job(s) rather than "what can you do" and "how would/have you handled XYZ" as examples of what was expected. Very much a tangent from the normal behavioral interviews of most businesses these days. From there it ended with a walk back to front desk and told 2-3 days for a review as followup. Rejection email was very vanilla and ironically followed by a survey by email hours later to rate the candidate experience. As one with 7+ years of customer service and technical support experience, this outcome left myself puzzled, and pondering what exactly are they looking for in this role, a feeling others have similarly commented as well here.
