J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Aerotek (Houston, TX) en janv. 2021
Entretien
Applied through LinkedIn, Was contacted immediately by a Corporate internal recruiter. Because of the holidays, about a month went by before setting up an initial phone conversation. 1st call- with recruiter, went over resume, basic information. 2nd call- same recruiter, set up a time for an interview with Director of Market Operations. 3rd interview- with Director through Webex video, very very friendly, initially said to "shake the nerves, just wanted to get to know the most authentic me, not to answer with perfect cookie cutter answers", asked A TON of behavioral/tell me a time when questions. Unfortunately for me another candidate was given an offer, but it truly was a pleasure to get to know this company and connect with my recruiter. Will be circling back in the future for any openings!

I honestly should have known better after reading how unprofessional this company is. I went through all stages of the interviews. My interviews were very successful. The recruiters expressed to me how much they enjoyed meeting/ speaking with me & how they thought I would excel in the role given my experience. When it was time to negotiate I was assured I would be contacted once they finalized the details.... then.... ghosted. I emailed a few days later, nothing. I called almost a week later after the last interview to ask if they had any updates or needed any additional information from me, nothing..
Through the process, I realized this is not my cup of tea anyways especially given how they ghosted me with absolutely no follow up. Although they mentioned how important communication was, they failed to prove that in their intake process. Interviews were pretty simple, they were just trying to get to know the candidates more. They even give the candidates almost like a cheat sheet with all things Aerotek and more about the specific position. I listed a few questions they asked but be prepared to answer behavior questions related to the role. I really dodged a bullet here so I am happy things didn't work out.

Initial screening was 15 minutes. Recruiter who emailed me was not the same recruiter that called me (which I was not aware of until I got on the phone).
Said the interview would be "conversational" but then powered through 7-8 questions in 15 minute span. Asked how competitive I was and if I was okay working 7:30-5:30 (since these are normal hours). I didn't get the "warm fuzzies" from the interview.
Here's the real kicker - I was told I wasn't chosen for the next round (which I wasn't too mad about) because they had chosen another candidate... and 2 hours later on LinkedIn I saw that they promoted the same role and looking for new applicants.
