Candidatei-me online. Fui entrevistado pela CBRE (Seattle, WA) em dez. de 2018
Entrevista
I received an email on Monday the 10th, in the afternoon requesting a "chat based" interview. I was asked to send a message to a particular contact via Google Hangouts to set up the interview. Since it was less than 24 hour noticed, I did so immediately. I received no response. At 7:52AM the next morning (8 minutes before the original 8AM requested time) I received a message "Hi, how are you?". Because of the lack of communication prior, I decided I was no longer interested in this position. I told the sender that I respectfully rescind my application and wished them luck on their search. Their response? "Ok Bye".
I'm sorry, but the interview process is not only a time for the applicant to impress the employer, but also the employers opportunity to impress the applicant. Your lack of communication and professionalism is not an environment I want to work in. If you have requests and tasks for your applicants, you need to make sure you're also doing your part to respond and communicate.

I was asked to send a message via Google Hangouts to set up the interview. I did so immediately since they were requesting an interview less than 24 hours later. I never received any communication afterwards or confirmation until 8 minutes before the intended interview time.

One phone interview, one in person. In person was very conversational but very thorough. Lasted a very long time, and resulted in a job offer. I think would normally be a shorter interview.

The interview felt off from the start—overly formal and unengaging. One interviewer seemed disengaged, and the conversation felt more like a presentation about their careers than an actual interview. They began by emphasizing how busy they were and how they had to find time to interview multiple candidates, making me feel like just another task to check off.
Despite applying for a creative and technical role, they did not ask anything technical or project-related. My efforts to demonstrate enthusiasm and research were dismissed, and my questions were not taken seriously. The whole experience felt rushed and impersonal, giving me the impression of a toxic work environment.
