Interviewed Dec 2011 in Costa Mesa, CA (took 4 weeks)
The recruiter conacted me for a phone intreview with her then set up an interview with teh Sales Director in Costa Mesa.I would be selling executive suites/space.I have been doing this this prior and have valuable Orange County contacts and a great resume. I became familiar with Regus to prepare and my recruiter said that I had nailed the personality test. When Ilookedonline I had noticed that most of the team in OC was previously employed by Enterprise Rent A Car. I thought it was odd.
I went tomy interview and was introduced to a guest interviewer , a new hire from 20 years at Enterprise. He drilled me as person I would be working for sat by and watched as I was attacked.The interviewer was hostile, had no idea about exceutive suite sales.( his questions were mothing to do with the job, and showed his insecurity).But I took it, answered politely and kept smiling. Afterward, I told my recruiter I was confused by it... I went on to tell her who interviewed me and she was shocked, and said "He has something to prove;I was afraid that might happen.." Strangest interview ever! I sent thank you cards and after a month of "Hang on, theyre still deciding..blah.blah." I finally get a generic email declining me. Very distasteful interview and process...Alot of leading on .....and weirdness.Only chance: come from Enterprise...

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Chertsey, England (United Kingdom) (took 1 week)
I only attended the first interview; there would have been a second 1-to-1 interview but I didn't get that far.
During the interview I was asked about previous roles and I was asked to draw a flow chart for an everyday task, such as making a cup of tea or going to the shops.
I had been asked to take in examples of my work, such as documents I had written in prevuious roles. The interviewed read these while I was drawing my flowchart.
I was told nothing about the role during the main interview. I asked some questions at the end to try to gain some information, but it was hard work. They obviously saw the interview as being for their benefit only and didn't appreciate that the candidate can use the interview to find out about the role and the employer.
They never got back to me to say how the interview went, so I assume I failed! After putting in the effiort to attend an interview it is poor that they could not be bothered to even send an email telling me that they didn't want to progress my application.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took 3 months)
I was contacted by a recruiter who conducted a cursory phone interview after which I was asked to complete some on-line personality / skills testing. I completed these tests and was scheduled for two interviews by Area/Region Managers about a week later. I was asked to drive about 90 minutes for these interviews. After completing fairly standard interviews, I was told to expect a follow-up call in a few days. About a week later I was asked to schedule an additional interview with a Vice President that was conducted via teleconference about a week later (again, 90 minutes from home). I was told to expect a decision in a few days. About 2 weeks later I was informed via the recruiter that I was not selected for the position. About 2 months later I was again called in for another interview (90 minutes from home), given the same interview that I had been given 3 times before by yet another employee and as of today (almost 4 weeks later) have not heard a single thing about the position. While I understand that there are more qualified workers then there are positions available these days, it strikes me as odd that it would take well over 3 months to A: Fill an open position or B: Have the decency to contact interviewed employees and let them know the outcome of the interview process.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Tarrytown, NY (took 4 weeks)
I began with a pleasant interview with HR recruiter from headquarters. It went well, then I was referred to an Area Director in NY/CT marketplace. He had me interview with two separate center managers in two locations. Then I had another one hour plus interview with area director. He then couldn't make up his own mind so he had me video conference with one of his bosses in Florida. I was told a decision would be forth coming in 1st week of July (after a three week five interview process). Then I was called and asked to produce a written business plan and finally I was asked to work a half day in one of their centers to get a feel for the job. To this day late July 2011 not even a courtesy email or phone call regarding position and if it was filled. Stay away from these jokers unless you want to be abused and taken advantage of. To add insult I was more qualified than the people who were interviewing me. If you want to be a slave for next to no money then this is the outfit for you. One of the most unpleasant interview processes I have ever encountered. Work culture appeared to be cleaning a central kitchen area, installing phones and internet access, cleaning up after clients in conference rooms, emptying garbage cans. Letting in office construction workers, answering the switchboard while a coworker takes lunch break. All this and then you had to deal with clients who were renting temporary space. They run these locations with no staff, you are the staff. I hope this helps out anyone prior to applying with Regus Management. By the way, I would not have accepted this position if it was offered, too degrading and abusive. The interview process gave me ataste of what working on the plantation would be like.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took 4 weeks)
Regus wasted my time and made me drive over 100 miles to get to the four interviews that I had. I interviewed all the way up to the Regional Vice President, and then was left hanging for another two weeks while they looked for other candidates and then informed me (via recruiter) that they selected somebody else. How do you get that far in the process with nothing but softball questions and NOT get a job offer? I was quite surprised at this process.

Interviewed May 2011 in Saint Louis, MO (took 1 week)
I applied online through Monster and recieved a call a couple of weeks later. The recruiter asked me the standard battery of questions. (Why do want to work for Regus? What was you last position? Why did you leave? etc.) I got a call a couple of days after that I got a call from the Center Manager inviting me to a 1:1 interview. She told me she would send me the application and background check release via email - she didn't. When a arrived for my in person interview I filled out the application and background check release. During the interview, which again consistied of many of the standard questions, the Center Manager didn't write a single thing down. I was surprised due to the sheer amount of questions that she asked that she didn't take a single note. I was told that I would be informed of their decision that Friday either way. I wasn't. I recieved an email a week and a half later letting me know that I wasn't selected for hire.
