      Senior Program Manager Interview

      28 Feb 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Kent, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at REI (Kent, WA) in Feb 2018

      Interview

      Unprofessional, irresponsible and confused. I made it through the HR screen and spoke to the hiring manager who rudely asked me why I applied for a job two positions below my previous position. Honestly, I didn't know this as titles were similar, nor had I been told initially by HR. In fact, when I politely mentioned it via email to the HR contact, I let her know that although I didn't feel as though I was a good fit for the role, I was interested in the company. However, I heard no response at all. Not a peep. That's plain rude, irresponsible and unprofessional. Clearly management at this company are confused, aren't in-sync and have no problem wasting your time. Good luck!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      You mentioned you want to grow in your next position. Why did you apply for a job two positions below your previous title? I'm not looking to hire someone that will be promoted for the next 18 months at least, so why did you apply?
