      Senior Administrative Assistant Interview

      Nov 21, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (Jersey City, NJ) in Aug 2016

      Interview

      The interview process was seamless and very comfortable. I would have taken the position if the position has been offered earlier, but I have accepted another position in the interim. Everyone I met with (Erin, Rich, Janiene and Christine) were wonderful and it hurt me to have to turn it down. Vacation schedules contributed to the slower response.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is your interest in working with us and what do you bring to the table.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Oct 2022

      Interview

      After the Three-round interview process, I was ghosted then sent a generic rejection email, not even a phone call. I reached out to the recruiter multiple times, even left her a voicemail, and she never reached out to me. Completely unprofessional

      Senior Administrative Assistant Interview

      Jun 25, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY

      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Jun 2016

      Interview

      Got a phone screening interview fallowed by a face to face interview one week later. I met with 2 hiring managers for about 30 minutes each. I was given an excel test and to write a letter at the end of the face to face interview. It seems that they like me and my background was a good fit for the position. I got a call one week later that I didn't get the job but the managers liked me recommended me for another position in my hometown (it became obvious that I didn't get it because I live too far which was confirmed to me later on). I met with the new hiring manager in my hometown who also liked but unfortunately did not offer me the position because the salary is at entry level and I couldn't take it since it would have set me back. It seems to me that they want the experience but are not willing to pay for it.
