Cornerstone OnDemand Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand.

Interview

Applied online back in May 2019. Never heard anything. It is now February 2020. The same job listing is still online. I have a hard time believing they haven't been able to find someone to fill the position in nearly a year. They could have trained someone in this time. If they have filled it, then it is lazy to keep using the same requisition number.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took a week. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand (Salt Lake City, UT (US)) in October 2019.

Interview

Started with a recruiter reaching out and a phone interview. This was followed up with a skills assessment. It was relatively simple but a couple of the questions outlined some potential dysfunction/bad processes in their product department. After finishing the evaluation I never heard back from the company. After I've spent the time to do a candidate assessment the least the company can do is respond. Based on the questions from the assessment and experience interviewing I wouldn't recommend Cornerstone.

Application

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand (Los Angeles, CA (US)) in June 2019.

Interview

Rude hiring manager. She was abrasive. Used an expletive during interview (F-Word). 'Wants somebody like the guy she had before, because he did it all and she didn't have to do anything.' (Paraphrasing.) What the role is advertised as and what she apparently wants are two different things. Wanted someone with live action cinematography / filming experience but also, with extensive Motion Graphics Designer and Editing experience. Two different roles / profeessions, three, really, all for $65k-$70k. I'm a Motion Designer / Art Director with Editing experience. Company process also rude. Never received an actual notification I wasn't selected, but received automated email asking me to take a survey about their Interview process, "while this particular role did not work out."

Interview

Video interview followed by a two - 2:1 interviews and then a panel presentation.

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand.

Interview

I had over 9 interviews with various stakeholders so it was a bit tedious. It could be reduced by doing group interviews or better identifying what each person is going to focus on so it is not redundant for the candidate.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand (Los Angeles, CA (US)) in March 2019.

Interview

I was first contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn who passed my resume along to another hiring manager. I had agreed to a time to meet them, but had to reschedule because times didn't work. After my interview, I was then moved on to the next phone interview.

During my phone interview, I was asked questions semi-related to the position, but was pushed to answer anyway. I let them know I was not too familiar with the topic, but did my best to answer based on other information I knew that was related.

The call ends and I wait about 6 days to no response. I email the team and did not receive a response until I messaged the general HR email 3 days later for an update. They eventually let me know, after all that hassle, that I had NOT made it through to the next round because the call was "not satisfactory." I felt that this was very unprofessional and I haven't experienced this type of behavior from before. Unfortunately, they had to reschedule about 5 times during the process and had to wait minutes to start my call because of tardiness.

Interview

I reached out to CSOD via LinkedIn back in January 2019. I have a couple of former colleagues who work, there, so I used them as references. At the end of January, a recruiter reached out to me and the process started. I went through an initial call with the recruiter, Erin, who was great. This was followed by a technical screen related to experience with API testing and design. Once through that process I went to the onsite interview in Santa Monica in March (most of the delay was on my side and Cornerstone was very accommodating and flexible).

The onsite consisted of a brief tour of some of the areas of the building. Then I went in and interviewed with a couple of groups of team members, from Product, Dev and QA. Questions ranged from topics in Software test development, Selenium Design, some whiteboard coding and behavioral questions. Every one was really cool and down to earth. Some good questions were asked.

The candy wall was amazing!! :)

Unfortunately, the offer was just too low, for me.

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand (Santa Monica, CA (US)) in March 2019.

Interview

Started with short conversation with recruiter, followed by 6 remote interviews with employees through video / phone. Then went onsite to interview with multiple SVPs and CTO.
Received offer that did not match the initial promised numbers and conditions from the recruiting side. Negotiated to match what was initially offered but got denied by
HR after 2 months.

Overall, I had a negative interviewing experience that lasted a long time, and did not see a good overall structure of Cornerstone on some simple processes. I had to follow up multiple times to get reimbursed for onsite interview mobile expenses until a VP made sure this was taken care of. From what I observed from my meetings with Cornerstone employees and directives, seems like there is a driver force to change the company's culture, but not many actions that materialize it.

Take this review with a grain of salt as its conditions were very different from a normal hire in respect to location, benefits, and salary.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4+ months. I interviewed at Cornerstone OnDemand (Sandy, UT (US)) in February 2019.

Interview

Several calls/emails with a recruiter stretched out over about 4 months. Not only were there several calls with the recruiter, but I had 1 in-person interview and about 5 other phone interviews spread out over about 3-4 months. The recruiter would reach out every 3-4 weeks and say they were still interested in me, then I'd have another phone call, then nothing for another several weeks. It was so frustrating and pretty rude to string people along for such a long time.

Interview

Sourced by recruiter. Quick connect with the hiring manager. Extremely professional, yet personable. You can feel their culture in every conversation. Outstanding leadership. High energy and extremely positive about the future.
