I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Singapore)

Interview

Hiring HR was based overseas and took some time to schedule our interview due to the time difference. HR was friendly and able to articulate the demands of the job as well as selling the company.

I interviewed at Brown-Forman

Interview

Extremely unprofessional process. After making it to the final round of interviews, the feedback I received was that I was "on the younger side" for the role (versus current employees in the business). That is not a valid reason - they knew my age at the time of my application so why make me go through rounds of interviews if that is an issue in the first place - not to mention age as a selection criteria is extremely old school, which this company seems to be. Welcome to the new age, it's 2023!

I applied online. I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Louisville, KY)

Interview

Overall, the interview process was quick and easy. It was not a structured interview with situational/behavioral questions. The atmosphere was casual and pretty relaxed. I heard back pretty quickly following the interview.

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Brown-Forman in May 2023

Interview

Applied online, met the recruiter for a 45 minute interview (all behavioral questions). I had to follow up 2 weeks later because I did not get a response. The recruiter said I was moving onto the next round. My next interview was with the hiring managers (again, behavioral questions). I thought it went well. I reached out to the recruiter a week later and asked about the timeline of when to hear back, to which they responded they'd get back to me in 1-2 weeks. However, I never heard back from BF and it's been over a month. For a company that prides itself in its transparency and communication throughout the interview process, the fact that I've been ghosted is really disappointing.

Interview Questions
  • All behavioral questions & for the interview with the hiring manager, they prepare you in advance giving you the topics of discussion and how they'd like you to respond (STAR).

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Barcelona) in Apr 2023

Interview

I've been contacted bu email after I applied by someone from HR out of the country (+39)where I applied for (Spain) and invited me to an interview with the local HR and the GBS - Lead PtP in Spain. I had the interview, which was telling about my CV and then questions related to different situations I've experienced to show my skills. They said thati they would contact me to inform if I continued or not on the selection process. After some weeks, I saw that somehow my application on their HR platform was withdraw (not that I have been rejected by them), something I never did, so I contacted them to ask about that and also about the selection process. I never received a reply, which shows the quality of the HR department at that compa y, and in some way, the quality of the company per se, because if they want to ensure what happens within the HR departmen, they can see KPIs and system changes that are WEIRD....

Administrative Assistant

I haven't worked since Jan. 2020 when my job as administrative assistant for the Hospitalist group was eliminated. I can't begin to count the number of applications submitted, interviews I've had, jobs that I was told were mine then they weren't, etc. Several jobs have fallen through or not panned out. I am not a job hopper and want to stay where I go. I have a zoom interview tomorrow for a front desk receptionist position at an oral surgeon's office. Any interview tips are appreciated.

Payroll Chick

Didn’t get past phone interview but I still see the job posted and the manager is posting on LI like they are desperately trying to fill the position. I’m perfectly qualified. Do I reach back out or let it go?

Hii I had applied for an admin job and in November for which I cleared 3 stages I.e assessment exam, phone interview, Teams interview with head HR and now I've been called for an in-person interview. Should keep high hopes for getting this job and also what kind of questions can be asked for the face to face interview.
