Difficult Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Compass (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2023

Interview

First round was standard phone interview screening with recruiter. Second round was Google meet with two team members. Essentially, the same interview twice. Questions were scenario based leaning on specific examples in past work history and more negatively framed than I anticipated. Answers were typed. One team member paused interview to respond to a message coming in.

Interview Questions
  • Tell us about a time you made a mistake. Have you ever had a disagreement with a manager? What sets you apart from other candidates? What is your understanding of this role?

The whole process was fairly easy. The hardest part was a deck you have to do for your final round describing how you'd create a marketing strategy for an agent.

Senior Resource Manager

Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!

Just heard that some companies are going to start paying people for their time if they are asking you to do a presentation or something! Does anyone think this will become a thing?
