I was interviewed for a sales role in there travel department. I was interviewed by an older lady who said she was the owner of the business. I’m not sure if she was drunk or on prescription medication, but the interview was a disaster. She kept making these wild claims & then falling about laughing at herself. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable in my life. I just got the hell out of there and never heard from them again.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Misfits (Sydney) in Oct 2024
Interview
Really weird company and overall interview process. The woman who called me to invite me for an interview is the co owner of the company and she couldn’t tell me a single thing about the role and the requirements for the role. I asked for a job description to prepare for the interview and they said they don’t believe in job descriptions..
I went in for an interview person interview into the most depressing and soulless office. For a ‘sales’ company, there wasn’t even a single person speaking in the office.
I asked about the role multiple times during the interview and they couldn’t give me a single answer. They just repeated that the role is what you make of it?? The role is apparently up for interpretation and you can do what you want?
I asked about work culture and perks/ work life balance and they said that their biggest perk is that you can bring your dog into the office…
They offer 0 flexibility, you need to be in the office 5 days a week as well as work overtime out of hours to attend events. I asked about time off in lieu and they said that the over time is a requirement of the role and therefore you don’t get any compensation.
They also said that the role is 100% impossible to not make commission from because they give you hot leads and basically throw money at you..
Overall the weirdest meal girl vibes from the interviewers..
