Guidepoint Global Junior Project Manager Interview Questions & Reviews

Interviewed Jan 2012 in New York, NY (took a day)

Not a difficult interview, but a tedious one. I met with several people, one after the other, with. Since each asked very similar questions and showed no sign of having talked to previous interviewers, the impression I got was the process was rather disorganized. The entire process took over 4 hours.

The position itself is not far removed from tele-sales - it consists of scouring the internet for people with industry-specific skills and experience that big investors would like to talk to for "advice", then cold-calling to recruit these people to speak to the investors. Somehow this isn't considered as insider trading.

Pay was $45k with full benefits, but the work hours were something like 8:30 am to 6:45 pm. Plus a $20 bonus for each new person recruited. Not bad at all.

I never heard back from Guidepoint, despite their promising I would within a week, and having written follow-up emails to each person who interviewed me. Very unprofessional.
