The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Guidepoint (Seoul) in May 2020
Interview
Talked to the HR person from HK office for a phone interview after submitting my CV. She was asking questions about my career plan and how I fit into the role. Then she stressed that I would be asked to work overtime often and work under pressure for the best results. She asked if I’d be ready for such a challenge. I don’t think she sold the position well to be honest. Then she said the next process would be the manager finalizing the best candidate and moving on to 2-4:1 interview where I would be required to sit in an interview face to face. But she never got back to me for a whole month so I thought they were not considering. Then she emailed me asking if I am still available for the position as they were still “considering and reviewing” my application. Very unprofessional-just reject the application if you have already selected someone else. Why bother to ignore my emails for a whole month and then suddenly say they are still considering? Another week or two have passed but still haven’t heard back. Definitely not worth your time and I hope you know before going into the process that they are not going to act professionally or responsibly. I have read so many negative comments about guidepoint but still went for it and it was a bad mistake.
awesome! very quick and easy, make sure you know about the role and the responsibilities within the role. great opportunity to meet different teams and see how they function, also great opportunity to see the different leaders and the qualities that helped them succeed
One screening call, and one session with three to four interviews with fellow project managers, team leads, and the head of the office, and then a take home assignment, and a call to discuss this assignment.
