I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kroll (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2024
Interview
1. After application submission in early Feb 2024, I got a call within a week for a phone interview with a recruiter. It went well and they even advised me on what to say and how to portray things in video final interview. Was told I was a great candidate.
2. Completed written assessment and by final interview was told I scored well hence me getting to final interview.
3. Final interview was in early March and was 2 back to back sessions half an hour each. First one was with assistant manager and manager. Second one was with another manager and the department AVP (or VP) I can’t remember.
4. Was told they were seriously considering me and then to expect my assigned recruiter to notify if I got the job within two weeks. I followed up at two weeks, three weeks, and one month asking for an update. I wasn’t expecting to be told yes, I am fully understanding of the fact they could have found better candidates. It was just insulting to be strung along over two months and not given a status update. Still sour all these months later but I have to put my ego aside as I have considered applying again or calling in to withdraw the app for closure.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For example, “how would you go about obtaining information that may not be readily available internally?”
First round phone call with HR. Then a relatively straightforward written test, but tight on time, as there was quite a lot of material to look through. Didn't hear back after the test.
Just want to share more about the interview, the HR is quite friendly and the behaviour questions are general, asking your background and why kroll, stuff like that. Written test will be taken offline and manager interview will then start after that.
I applied online for the role and heard back the same afternoon asking to arrange an interview and then I had three interviews over the next couple of weeks . The first was with Hr which was basic and easy. Second and third were with management which were progressively more challenging and formal. After doing well in the second interview, I was asked to do a third interview in the same week which was unusual but I took as a good sign. The third interview was more formal and challenging. I never heard back after the third interview from management or HR. I was completely ghosted by the company after completing three interviews with them.
