      IT Support Specialist Interview

      25 Aug 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Leandro, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Gatco (San Leandro, CA) in Aug 2016

      Interview

      Employer put the ad out on indeed.com for the position and then the employer sends out email asking us to list dates and times that we can be available for an in-persion interview between the hours of 9:00am and 2:00pm from August 25th to August 30th in 2016--where August 27th and 28th are Saturday and Sunday respectively. This is usually a warning sign that all is not as it seems in that department--usually the employer should do a phone screen to weed out the people that they don't want to see either in-person or on-site and narrow the candidate pool in that matter. At that point, I decided that I was not going to go forward with this opportunity, both because of the half-hearted approach toward scheduling an interview and not conducting a phone screen. Employers need to be smart about how they interview job candidates and who they invite to go through to the next steps in the hiring process and when they don't follow through, problems happen. Job candidates should not be scheduling their interviews with a potential employer because at that point, they may be doing the interviewer's own job at scheduling the interview and the candidate won't be paid for it--instead, the interviewer needs to commit to a time and date for the interview with the job candidate and if the candidate does not agree, it's up to the interviewer to either suggest another time or halt the process with the candidate and move on to the next one. Life is too short to waste on bad job situations, especially when they start out this bad.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Would I be available for an in-person interview between August 25th (a Thursday) and August 30th (the following Tuesday), where in 2016, August 27th and 28th fall on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00am to 2:00pm?
