Anonymous Interview Candidate in Chicago, IL

Neutral Experience
Easy Interview
Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AKIRA (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2023

Interview

Long conversation where the cofounder basically uses these interviews as an opportunity to learn about what different companies are doing. He has zero intention of ever hiring as multiple recruiters have presented top tier candidates and none have been hired; highly unethical.

Interview Questions
  • How do you manage multiple stores?

Ghosted after the interview. No feed back even though we spoke about next steps after sending portfolio. They have contacted a lot of people in the industry and have done the same to the handful of people I know.

The process was fun. I passed the first interview made it to the styling interview but wasn’t fast enough. So I never heard back. Which I thought was weird because the job is considered easy with my level of experience.

A thorough and hands on interview process. They get to know you all while throwing you into a days work. it fosters a well rounded work environment while getting rid of position status mentality. I appreciate the shadowing concept of the interview to test if it is something that interest and excites you.

Project Coordinator

I recently had an interview with a hiring manager. The conversation went well in my opinion and they ended it by saying they would “like to schedule a day for me to meet their team and get a feel for the projects they’re working on and then have the conversation about what I’m looking for as far as compensation.” I’m not sure what to expect from this, a part of me feels like this means they might want me for the role, but the process is a little unorthodox from my experience. Any thoughts?

Does anyone know the competency based questions you’ll be asked for a Business Development Analyst role at Aon? I have an upcoming pre-recorded online video interview that I have to submit within 7 days.
