      Project Coordinator Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at edX (Cambridge, MA)

      Interview

      Terribly unprofessional interview process. Extremely unpleasant and did not make me even want to work at edX. They went through the benefits of the job and made it seem like I already got the position, but then proceeded to put off additional interviews. I had to constantly follow up with the HR representatives because they don't communicate with each other and schedule interviews. I accepted a different job in the meantime, and I'm glad I did. They should outsource their HR reps because their current people do not reflect the company at all.

      We are a small team here of just a few recruiters, so this was definitely a hard one to read this morning. We sit very closely together and discuss all people currently in the interview process and even keep a tracker so that no one is missed. We'll be talking about this today so that we can be more diligent - we really want a great experience. In the meantime, we checked the post interview surveys to see if more detail was offered - but can find no negative reports. Please check the survey email you received post-interview and submit more detail to us. Glassdoor is great, but we want to actually fix this if there is a problem. That survey will give you ample space to provide us more detail. Thank you!

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at edX in Sep 2017

      Interview

      The whole interview process was very smooth and I had an amazing recruiter. I applied online and received an email from a recruiter with a request to answer a few questions about myself and my experiences. After this initial email, I was contacted for a google hangout call with the recruiter and then another google hangout call with the hiring manager. After this was the in-person interview in which I met with several people on my team. I cannot say enough great things about my recruiter. She was very attentive and so open throughout the whole process. You can tell that she really cares about the people she recruits and she makes a point to make them feel comfortable and prepared for the interviewing process. She is really a great example of what the company is like and is honestly the best recruiter I have worked with. After I started working at the company, she even took me out for coffee to chat about how my first week was progressing. EdX impresses me with how great their HR department is. Everyone is so friendly and focused on helping others succeed. I am so glad that I made the choice to join this company and my recruiter really added to the positive experience that I had with my interviews here.

      Project Coordinator Interview

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at edX

      Interview

      I had two phone interviews- one with HR and one with the hiring manager. HR was very quick to schedule interviews, and did a great job following up with me in a timely manner. The total process took 3 weeks. I felt I had positive interviews with both HR and the hiring manager, so I was a bit surprised when I was told they wouldn't be moving forward with the interview process. I felt I fit all of the qualities they listed in the posting, so I asked for feedback on any areas where I could improve. HR gave me a vague response, and said I was qualified but that other candidates better suited the business' current needs, which is a paradoxical answer in my opinion. This answer left me wondering if it was a close call, or if it was a problem with my personality since they said I was qualified, but also said they didn't see a fit for this particular role. I think it is rare to receive genuine feedback from HR (probably for liability reasons), but it would be helpful if HR provided more concrete feedback for candidates that are clearly qualified, but are not selected to move forward for one reason or another.
