Recruiting Representative at The Delta Companies

No Offer – Interviewed in Dallas, TX Jun 2012 – Reviewed Jun 25, 2012

Interview Details – I was highly disappointed with this company's interview process and recruiting tactics. I found them to be highly unprofessional.

The interviewer told me via email prior to the interview that the base salary was between $50K-$60K. I even specified that I required a base salary between $50K-$60K in three different places prior to the interview: in an email to the interviewer, in the online application, and on the three-page questionnaire I was required to fill out prior to the interview. I was assured that their base pay was within the range I needed.
However, during our in-person interview, the interviewer told me that the base salary was actually $36K for all recruiting and sales positions, non-negotiable. When I showed her a copy of our pre-interview communication regarding salary, she didn't know what to say. No apology, no explanation for any "mix up" or "misunderstanding."

I learned at my interview that there were three more interviews to go through before a hiring decision is made. If pay hadn't come up in our first interview, I wonder when in the timespan of the four interviews she would have told me that she was not honest about the base pay in our communication.

Also, I was told they require a side-by-side with another recruiter for two hours (on top of your total of four interviews) so you can see what the job is like. I will say that this could be a benefit to someone who is new at recruiting.

They do seem to offer a good training program. So if you are trying to break into recruiting, that would be very helpful to you.

I declined to proceed with any further interviews and do not recommend this company based on my experience.

Marketing Representative at The Delta Companies

Accepted Offer – Reviewed Aug 26, 2012

Interview Details – My process consisted of a phone interview with a recruiter, a questionairre, a one on one interview with HR, two interviews with the sales director and a job shadow with marketing representatives. The interview process is very structured, challenging and fun.

Negotiation Details – It is a set base plus commission. You negotiate your own salary on top of the base! It's a sales job!
