I applied to position online through the ALFA careers website. I included a link to my LinkedIn profile and was contacted via LinkedIn via friend request later that day. The next day the recruiter called to set up a phone interview. I prepped by using glassdoor, company website and general google search, in conjuction with prior industry research. Recruiter was grateful for my interview prep. When the time for the phone interview came, I didn't receive a phone call. I waited 15 minutes then called. She apologized and we started immediately. Asked general questions about my interest in the job and my background, including ideas that I had for the marketing function of the community. Also asked how I felt about being involved in all aspects of the community as they have smaller number of staff and sometimes required to fill in on any position as needed. She also asked about other opportunities that I have with other companies and prior experiences. I wasn't given the opportunity to ask questions, so I asked for it before we hung up. I asked about the ratings and reviews on glassdoor. The recruiter mostly sidestepped the question and claimed that all companies are negatively biased (which is true), but she did directly admit that the "micromanagement claims are true and that the prospect should be okay with and prepared for that environment.

Spoke with corporate recruiter who was very professional and personable Set up a meeting with Regional 1st at a restaurant, then at a book store. There was no office because he offices from his home.
