    Interview

    Phone interview initially conducted by a memeber of the aquisition team, then if you pass that on to a face to face. Phone interview was fairly informal and friendly, the interviewer was to the point and did not sugar coat the job

      IT Systems Administrator

      Had a job interview for Sys Admin, reached 2nd round. During 1st round, first they say might not need 2nd round as we covered most of the stuff and all looks good and started talking about company culture. But instead next day got email, saying need to do a 2hr written 28 page scenario based to see how I respond to scenarios, did it, was told will be be notified by this Monday or Tuesday, no response yet. What looks bad is when they set hopes up, then do the opposite. How to follow up friends ?

      Consultant

      Applied for an internal role and was planning on having a coffee chat with someone on the team in the same role I applied for. What are the best questions you’ve asked peers to get insight into the team?? Thanks in advance!

      Senior Content Strategist

      Has anyone ever cried during an interview? I’ve been laid off 3 times now within my 9 years of working, and when they asked why I’ve jumped around a lot, I told them I’ve had bad luck and been laid off 3 times and the emotions hit me a little. I’m so embarrassed and feel like it ruined my chances. Wondering if anyone has ever experienced this and still got the job or been on the other side?
