Interview was easy and they asked very important questions to see if you are right for the job. I was very impressed with how fast the interview process went. I am happy about this new job opportunity
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Guusto Gifts (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2022
Interview
Was initially asked for a quick chat online with an hr person. It was not really a quick chat it was actually very formal with real interview questions. I did answer all the questions. Although half way through I felt that the interview went downhill after I spoke about a comparison on problem solving with gardening. I may have let my age show at this point and interviewer looked awkward and unimpressed. I got a real feeling that I was being cut off at that point. I would be interested to know the median age of employees at this company as I feel they don't hire anyone older than 30s.
First, thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that you had a bad experience in our interview process. We do our best to set expectations for everyone before each interview stage by laying out what will be covered and who they will be speaking with in the job posting. This is re-iterated in an email to candidates.
We will meet as a Talent Acquisition team to discuss your feedback and ensure we do not create a negative experience for any other candidates.
As to the implication, we do not hire anyone over 30, if you review our team and their LinkedIn profiles, you will see we have folks at Guusto from straight out of university to mature professionals bringing in decades of experience to our team.
Smooth but not too easy. Founders are really nice. So is the HR head. Itâs a good culture and one that is definitely recommended wilting to it it given the opportunity
