Interviewed Jan 2012 in New York, NY (took 3 months)
Was excited to interview with Crumbs - this wasn't for a position in the bake shop, but for a position in their corporate office/headquarters. Had a phone interview with HR, then got called in for a face to face interview. Interview went great, I was very qualified for the position, they did a background check, said they definitely wanted me to come back in and meet with the CEO, president, etc. Made it sound very much like I was getting the job. Went in for that interview (mind you, I was taking off all these days as sick days from work) and when I arrived there was only one person there - no warning that the others weren't coming, no explanation of why they weren't there. She seemed annoyed and disinterested, and it was the most awkward interview I have ever had. A week later I got an email saying they didn't know if they were hiring for this position anymore, but they would "definitely keep me updated." Never heard from them again. Completely unprofessional and rude way to treat someone, would never consider working with them again. For such a successful company you think they would have their act together a bit better.

This incredibly peppy HR manager named Caroline presented the job as in a once in a lifetime opportunity. All she spoke about was how much fun people had at their jobs. She made us try cupcakes, and let me tell you, wayy overpriced for a ridiculous amount of fondant and chocolate. NOT A GOOD PLACE TO WORK.

Absolutely no wiggle room. A shame of a salary for what they expect you to do.

Quick and fast. At first there was an group interview where you had to be fun and energetic. Then there is a second interview with the district manager in charge of the area that you wanted to work in. The interview with the DM was a bit hectic as she was taking calls and fix a laptop at the same time
