I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Swoon
Interview
Multiple round interview process. First a phone screen, video interview with recruiter, video interview with directors, video interview with VPs. It is a very tedious and excessive process for the final interview you are required to create a PowerPoint presentation. I would suggest shortening the process. The directors should be trusted enough to make the hiring call.
After the final interview I was sent an email by the recruiter informing me that I was not selected which feels a little cold because it was such a long and tedious process. Honestly, after doing multiple video interviews and seeing that everyone who works for the company looks the same (if you catch my drift) I was not surprised that I was not selected. Overall I would not recommend interviewing unless you have time for a long drawn out process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Typical questions about recruiting background and sales.
I was contacted online and scheduled a virtual screen. It was maybe 30 minutes long. I learned a bit about the org, not as much about the position in question. The interviewer was prompt in response and on time to our interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Swoon
Interview
I had a phone screen with the recruiter who wanted to submit my resume for their client, they had me sign an agreement to represent and asked for my last 4 of SSN which was kind of weird. The recruiter seemed excited to talk to me but I never heard back again. I followed up by email, and text msg which they had originally texted me from and nothing - a few weeks later I followed up with someone in leadership and the recruiter got back to me immediately saying he never got anything from me and the position was filled. overall very unprofessional especially given the role was for a recruiter and they know that we recruiters understand the process. I would not trust them to rep me for any future roles.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Swoon (Chicago, IL)
Interview
Recruiter called me as soon as I applied. Told me I’d be great for the role and that they’re sending my info to their client, Walgreens. Never heard from them again.
I followed up with the recruiter a week later, still no response. I understand if things changed, but it was weird that they straight up ignored my email. A simple email letting me know I was no longer a fit is all they had to do.
