      Recruiter Interview

      2 Jun 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Emma in May 2023

      Interview

      The people I got to chat with seemed like they had no interest in what I was trying to explain and, also, it gave me the impression that I have already gotten “a label”. They were mostly stuck with a certain thing, questioning my motivation and answers and, thus, for me everything was really awkward. The interview was also rushed, I felt as if I was on the clock to make myself more interesting to an already uninterested party. I should have known that the process is weird because they state on their website that they give you an assignment, but, to my complete shock when I opened the link, it was an extra GMAT test. That you have to complete in less than 12 minutes and there were a lot of questions. It’s 2023, “Decision making” skills do not come out of a maths and logics test. Don’t even get me started in how they “give feedback”. They don’t. They say that the “competition” did better than you and that at “this stage” they don’t provide individual feedback. Even if the job is for someone at the start, it’s, from what they have described, one of a lead’s, only that it’s most likely that you will not get that title. Conclusion: absolute waste of time. You’re being rushed and judged for nothing.

      Recruiter Interview

      28 Nov 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Lisbon, Lisbon District
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Emma (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      No response, no rejection after passing the whole process! Very negative impression on the company. Long interview process with very detailed interviews that last more than one hour. In the end completely ghosted without any feedback or even a rejection. One interview with People operations person was extremely uncomfortable, I believe that this person needs more training on how to conduct interviews.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Mostly hypothetical scenarios- in the later stages of the interviews. What would you do if confronted with this situation?

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Emma (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      Very good. Online interview with a very nice person and skilled recruiter. Half an hour long, with a good atmosphere and a positive energy. I felt the recruiter really wanted to meet my skills and extract good information from me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Main motivation: why applying for Emma.

      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Emma (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      interview process consists of 3 stages. The first interview is around 30 minutes, the second one is around 1 hour, and the last one takes around 5 hours, where you have to meet people from different departments.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      professional experience related to recruitment but nothing specific about my tasks/responsibilities. - how i handled difficult cases - if i had any miscommunication with the hiring manager - they wanted to give feedback regarding the interview that started 10 minutes ago, which was confusing.
