The most ridiculous interview experience I've ever had.... by far. It began with a 45-minute phone screen in response to a Linkedin application for a job opening. I answered many questions, explained my salary expectations (which the interviewer said were "doable"), and was told they only hire "A players" so I should expect a lengthy follow-up interview process. Holy cow, she was NOT kidding. I had to do another hour-long interview, in which I was told how physically uncomfortable the job would be (due to the nature of the dry-cleaning environment) and how much change management was required of the position - with almost no executive support. But I love training and a good challenge, so I was game. I then had to take not just a personality test, but a freaking aptitude test! It took so long, and so many of them felt like trick questions (I won't even go into how discriminatory those tests are). I actually had to call my husband in to help because he's the smartest person I know, and we were both just incredulous that I had to go through this. Finally, I was called in for a panel interview with the head of human resources and some guy they promoted to an executive position from the previous instructional design role. It was then that I was told that I still had to undergo ANOTHER "stress interview" that would last AT LEAST two hours. Oh, and by the way, the initial recruiter that I spoke to was wrong. The salary cap was nearly 15k below what said was my minimum. This company isn't just a mess, they're delusional.
