First off, I was asked to interview directly through the company. I was told I was moving to the next step of the process and to send over my availability. Immediately ghosted after that, there was no other interview set up like they told me. Then a month later one of their temp agencies contacted me about a temp assistant buyer position, however it was $25 an hour and required full time in the office. Versus the full time position I interviewed a month prior was hybrid and 70k salary. I asked them if wfh could be possible over time, but they strictly said no. I kindly declined.
Then a couple months later, I was contacted again for the temp assistant buyer position on linkedin. I gave it a shot this time, and yet again the HR recruiter told me I was moving to the next step of the interview process and to give my availability. I was told the reason why it was $25 an hour was because it was a lesser work load more similar to an admin assistant (which I have 5 years experience in) I contacted the temp agency giving my availability, but then the temp agency tells me they’re not moving forward because I don’t have enough “excel experience”. I have 5 years experience working in excel, and being in this industry. What they didn’t know my colleague was also interviewing for the same position as well. Again, doing the same thing. Saying you’re moving on to the next step and then ghosting and reaching out months later to do the same thing again. They’ve been giving my colleague the run around for the past year for this assistant buyer position . I constantly see this position get reposted, and saw a similar review experience. I don’t know if they’re actually hiring or giving the illusion so they don’t have to pay back their PPP loans. It’s otherwise ridiculous, wasting candidates time to get nothing over and over again. Never had this interview experience before. I’m sure their staff is struggling right now since it’s been a year without the position being filled.

Entrevista
By far the best and memorable interview/application process I've ever experienced from a company. The HR partner who handled my application process was very responsive, and I felt that he cared about my welfare as an applicant. Instead of just sending me an email on the next steps of the application process, he would go out of his way to give me a call and update me on the status of my application. I had several interview sessions (5 interviews from HR, hiring managers, VP), but I had great experiences with them. The interview was more conversational. Even if I didn't get the role, I am happy to have been able to experience this interview process with World Market!

the process was quick, took two weeks from 1st phone interview with a follow up in person. 3 people interviewed me, 30 min each. i was then contacted by HR and was told that everyone liked me but they've decided to go with someone else at that time. 2 days later they called me back apologizing and giving me an offer. It turns out someone rejected their offer and decided to move on and i was a second runner up so that's why they called me.
