Netflix Part Time Supervisor Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Very easy. Phone screen with a recruiter and then a panel interview with the job offered to me on the spot at the conclusion of the interview.

Negotiation Details – They asked how much I wanted per year. I told them and they countered 3k less. I accepted on the spot.

Interview Details – I was contacted by a Netflix recruiter and we set up a 1:1 phone interview. The interview went very smoothly and it was clear that I was able to exceed expectations in the position.

I sent a thank you letter that was set to arrive approximately 7 days after the interview.

I followed up with a phone call 2 weeks later and they did not return my phone call or acknowledge me as an applicant in the running for the position.

Approximately 1 month later, another recruiter from the same location interviewed me for the exact same position and had no idea that I had already interviewed for the position.

Interview Details – Multiple emails resulted in a face to face with upper management.

Negotiation Details – Easy. The offer came immediately after the interview. Advice: Don't just chase the higher $ amount....the chances are that you will not be getting it for long. Sometimes the smaller paycheck is worth the stability.

Interview Details – Interview lasted about 30 minutes, was asked basic questions about prior work history. Covered basic information about the company and it's coming goals in terms of headcount. Was asked a few questions about how I would handle coaching and possible terminations.
When I asked about growth potential the response was that it depends on performance, which was the same for bonus potential.
The interviewer was pleasant and prompt on set callback time.

Interview Details – expect them to fully review your resume and be able to back up anything that you put in it.

Interview Details – I was up for a operations supervisor job at Netflix's facility in Northboro, Ma. I went through all the interviews ranging from the operations manager, HR, and finally with the regional manager. They seemed to like me, the interviews went well until I asked a question to all of them. I told them the that the CEO of Netflix Reed Hastings made a comment in the Wall Street Journal in July addressing their shareholders, that Netflix plans to be 100 percent operation in 5-7 years with online streaming and will be getting out of DVD copies all together. So I asked all the interviewers if this is true what will become of operations personnel in that time frame. Well, they all became very defensive stutttering that there will always be a need for DVD copies blah blah blah. They all became very irate with the question. I was very surprised since I was asking a question based on a factual statement by the owner of the company. They ended up not offering me the job and when I asked the recruiter why he said that they all felt I would not be a team player. He stated the regional manager felt that my devotion to the corporate mission would be in question. Huh? All I asked was what they thought of the CEO's comment and how it would impact operations personnel in 5-7 years. Of course this implies that there might be a 70 percent reduction in their workforce if they go to online straming forcing most of their operations hubs to shutdown. What a joke! I'm glad I dodged that bullet. It would be the kind of job where you can feel your blood leaving your hands while gripping the steering wheel as you pull in to the parking lot go to work there every morning at 2am.

Interview Details – The interview consisted of 2 parts. The first is a basic phone screen with an in house recruiter. These are your typical interview questions such as what is your management experience, relocatable, computer skills etc. The second is a face to face with the Operations Manager. These questions are more situational and specific to the type of work at Netflix.

Negotiation Details – This position is hourly based on location, size and market. There are no negotiations as hourly wages are public knowledge.

Interview Details – I was put off by the phone interview and didn't take the HR rep's call when she wanted to set up a time for a face-to-face. She was rushed the whole interview, cutting me off mid-sentence and asking questions that she would have known the answers to had she listened when I was talking. Aside from that, she seemed rather rude. Granted, she could have been having a rough day, but if you're representing your company to potential employees then you need to get your act togethr and be on point.

Interview Details – Emailed resume, called for phone interview, brought in for second and third in-person interviews. Job offer call was received two days later.
