Interview Details This job is still open after being actively posted for at least a year. It's now Spring 2013 and I interviewed for the job in Fall 2012 and it is still open. The phone screen and phone interviews went well and I was brought in for an onsight interview - 5 in total. One interviewer left me waiting for well over 30 minutes without any prior knowledge that she would be late. I began to wonder if I was in the right place and I could not get my contact person on the phone from the reception area. The other interviewer literally came from the airport and sat down to interview me since the other interviewer was late. Unfortunately, she asked me the very same questions she had interviewed me over the phone a few weeks prior! The late interviewer finally showed and seemed to ask me questions that were not pertinent to the job and she was not even the hiring manager. The last interview was a lunch interview and we waited and waited for the lunch to show. I happened to see a box lunches outside of the interview office just sitting on the table. No one announced that the lunch was there for us or left a note. So by this time I'm starving and I was expected to have a decent interview which was interview #4 by this point. The 5th interviewer had to cancel but I was told they would re-schedule. By the time I got home, let's say 30 minutes, I got an email that the future interview would not be scheduled and if I had questions to call the recruiter. That was it folks! Hmmm, I wonder why the position is still open. I'm not disgruntled because I was not offered the job - I know I am a professional in the community and they should treat people as such unless otherwise viewed. Later a headhunter reached out to me, trying to recruit me for the very same job and I shared my story and oddly enough, the recruiter had a very similar story about applying at the same company.

Interview Details I received a call from HR after my application was submitted online. There was a second call with HR after to discuss my past experience and expectations for the role. After I met with the hiring manager on site, which was an hour and a half of in depth questions and additional explanation of the role. Overall the people are professional and kind, although the process and their decision making is slow from my experience.

Interview Details
I applied for the position online and was called by HR a few weeks later. After I passed the phone screen, the HR person set up an in-person interview with the hiring manager with some kind of assignment to present at the interview but later changed it to a phone interview without an assignment.
The phone interview went well, and I was scheduled for multiple short phone interviews: a higher-level HR person, the hiring manager's boss, a peer to the position, and a business partner. The interviews with the latter two went fine; the others, not so much. The HR person was late to the call and then flat-out told me that she didn't think I was right for the job. The hiring manager's boss said essentially the same thing in softer terms. Of course, this left me wondering why I was being interviewed in the first place.
The company never contacted me again after the second round of phone interviews. The HR person I'd been dealing with did not respond to a polite email requesting a status update. Overall, I was left with an impression of confusion around the hiring process and a lack of respect from HR in terms of how it treats candidates.
Interview Question – Nothing terribly difficult or unexpected. Answer Question

Interview Details Initial communication, tests, and interviews were fine, company lobby and HR was a little worn looking. HR folks were very professional. But, this was not true once you left the lobby. HR also always backed management, regardless of the situation. It is a NO WIN company and poorly managed to be so large.
Negotiation Details – It was just ok and at the time I was desparate for a job so I took it.

Interview Details I submitted my resume online through Career Builder. Within two days, I received a call back on my resume. I went through two phone interviews before then being called in for a one-one-one interview. All of this had happened within two days of submitting my resume. I went in for the 1:1 interview with the manager of the department. It was laid back enough to put me at ease, and no extensive technical questions were asked. I was asked a lot of questions about my studies, why I am interested in the position, where I want my career to go, what the job would be like, etc. Overall, the interview went well, and within two days I was contacted with a job offer. I was impressed with how little waiting I had to do; from submitting my resume to accepting the job it only took 4-6 days.
Interview Question – Can you take intern jokes? View Answer
Negotiation Details – As an intern, negotiation wasn't really necessary. Everyone I had interviewed with mentioned the pay range, and when I was offered the job I was offered the highest pay on that scale. If I had been offered a lower pay, I would bet that they would have been happy to negotiate. In my opinion it depends on how much of an asset you would be to their company/department. The more valuable you are, the more leeway you will likely have in negotiation.
