I interviewed at Discover (Illinois City, IL)

Interview

The process was very laid back. I felt like I had known the recruiters forever. They made me feel very comfortable and usually I hate interviews. The interview lasted around 30 minutes and was the only one I had to complete. I was offered a position on the spot.

Fairly laid back and easy. The interviewer made it more like a conversation instead of an interview. I felt good about my interview. Interviews can be stressful but this one wasn’t too bad.

I interviewed at Discover (Riverwoods, IL)

Interview

I think the interview process was pretty good for contractors. I went through 2 interviews, a screening process with recruiter and then a Teams video interview which was nice, so I didn’t have to come into the facility.

I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Discover

Interview

Apply 07/24 -> OA1 07/26 -> OA2 08/16 -> Phone 08/29 -> Technical 09/20 -> Behavioral 10/03 -> Offer (Rejected 10/11) Super long process. I got rejected after the behavioral so I'm especially mad about it. OA1 is some IQ test, OA2 is coding challenge. You don't need 100% to move on. Phone is just regular phone screen. Technical is supposed to be going over the OA, but for me I just got resume grilled, no leetcode. Behavioral is just standard, I got rejected after this stage and I'm genuinely not sure why. I literally got told by my interviewer "it sounds like you'll be a great fit here". Then I got rejected. Ok I guess.

First round interview is done on a video conference platform where you give pre-recorded responses. It seems like they just use it as a second preliminary screening round. I got very excited that I was selected to go on to the next round but ultimately disappointed

Following an initial call with HR to discuss my experience, there will be a technical conversation with developers focusing on technology and frameworks.

The interview was a two part process. Phone interview, and video interview if offered during the phone interview. Standard STAR method interview questions. The interviewers were easy to talk to and were very interested in getting to know me as an actual person.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Discover in Nov 2023

Interview

Had the recruiter call. The job posting clearly mentioned the range of base pay. But the recruiter low balled me saying the range is inclusive of of bonus and the actual base pay range is way less than what was posted. So I said I'm not interested any more

Technical Solutions Engineer

1. What to do if you cannot provide your manager or other leaders as references from your previous workplace? 2. How to answer interview Qs about my previous workplace or manager? For the context! I worked for a workplace for 8-9 months. But, there were ethical issues from the side of leaders including my manager, and senior employees that made me quit my job. Also, many leaders & senior coworkers were either fired or quit their jobs a few months after I did. Thanks in advance!

Has anyone ever been called back for a job they were first rejected from only to be rejected again? Does this happen often?

VP of Sales/director of Business Development

During the first screening interview I have been asked at times about my job search status and if I am talking to others. While this is probably a question they have no right to ask, I wonder if there is a right or wrong answer. If I say I am interviewing with 2-3 companies, they may feel it is not worth the extra effort to continue the discussion. If I say I am not actively interviewing, it may be a negative sign. Any idea about where they are coming from? (WFH & free agent for a while)
