Easy, casual & good conversation. I met the CEO and Director and was very much accomodated well. They asked reasonable questions related to role and experience. They were also asking industry questions to understand how well you know trends and industry
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Guru Studio
Interview
Very casual. Feels like the team just wanted to chat to get a feel for my personality and the overall call was 30 minutes. It was mainly them telling me about the project and role position.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Guru Studio (Toronto, ON)
Interview
I received an email inviting me to an on-site interview at their downtown office. During the visit, I had the opportunity to meet two people in HR: the Manager of People & Culture and the Head of Talent Acquisition. The interview was a positive experience, feeling more like a friendly conversation. They asked about my work experience and presented some scenario questions.
Following this, the TA team quickly scheduled a virtual interview with the VP of People & Culture for the next week, due to her availability. During this interview, she inquired about my current HR experience, asked some basic interview questions, and tried to get a sense of my personality. She also mentioned that they are very picky when hiring people. I noticed that the position had been open since November 2023.
After a week without feedback, I followed up. They asked me to wait another week as they were still in the hiring process, but ultimately, they decided to reject my application. The whole process took almost a month.
