      Vice President Sales and Marketing Interview

      Jul 8, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Burbank, CA
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at 1928 Jewelry (Burbank, CA)

      Interview

      My initial interview was with the CEO/owner. It was an average interview until he started asking inappropriate/illegal questions regarding my age, religion, ethnicity. I had a follow-up interview with him, followed by brief interviews with the Controller and the manager of accounts payable/receivables. Then he had me "interview" with the Director of Marketing-a person who was new with the company and who would be reporting to me! There is a reason there are so many negative comments about this company. The CEO is a blatant misogynist, who regularly ignores state and federal law. He has an inner circle of inexperienced sycophants (some are family members), and relies on gossip and inappropriate comments in determining how to interact with his executives. An unhealthy, unprofessional environment to say the least, and it starts with the interviewing process.

      Question 1

      Asked questions that I knew were not only inappropriate and not germane to the position but also illegal.

      Our CEO never does the initial interviews, I do. If I find it worthy for a second interview and only if it is for an executive position, then he joins me for a second round interview. Although, there may be instances where other executives join the second interview based on the position, at no point a lower level employee interviews his or her boss. As I mentioned in several of my responses to others, recently, we were awarded Golden Gate Certificate by CAL OSHA for 100% compliance which is not something easy to get. We are also being audited by at least two outside auditors hired by our major clients for compliance with State and Federal laws. We are proud of our compliance record. The 2/3 of all our employees are female and more than half of executives are female as well. Most of our long-term employees (anywhere between 30 and 45 years employment) are females. 1928 Jewelry employs people from all ages (our average age is 55 years old), all genders, all races, and all ethnic and religious backgrounds. The only family member employed is VP of Specialty Stores who is the CEO's elder brother and no sycophant for sure (sweetest man you can meet). 1928 Jewelry Company takes issues like the one described above very seriously and does not let them pass without a response. We wish you a better luck in your future employments.
