I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Baker Tilly (New York, NY) in Oct 2021
Interview
The recruiter was really nice and helpful. After the first interview (was on a Monday) they said we should hear back by the end of that week. I never did so I reached out to the recruiter. They called me and mentioned that I had clicked yes on the need for sponsorship because I’m on an F-1 visa. I told her that I have the OPT STEM, and that I would be good for 3 years. She mentioned they don’t sponsor past those three years. I told her I was okay with it and she sent me the details for the second round of interviews (which were on a Friday) were 2 back to back 30 minute interviews, one with a manager and one with a partner. Both were very conversational, no tricky questions, and overall a great experience. They said we would hear back within then next two weeks. I heard back by the next Wednesday that they were offering me the position!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Where do you see yourself in 15 years, why do you want to work here, tell me about a time you faced a difficult situation and how you managed it.
I had positive feedback from the interviewer. But didnt get the job. The interviewer was polite and respectful and I answered most questions. But I guess they were looking for something with more expertise in the area
It was more of a casual conversation with three other people rather than a formal interview setting. The environment felt very relaxed and comfortable, and the interviewer was friendly, welcoming, and easy to talk to throughout the session.
One initial screening call with HR, I was nervous but really tried to explain why I liked the company and why I really liked that the values aligned well with mine. Sent an after interview thank you email to the recruiter and never received a response. Sent a follow up email a week later because she said she would reach back out after a week and again have not heard since. I eventually decided to withdraw my application. I feel it is important for other candidates to know that this company does in fact ghost applicants they do not want instead of professionally letting them know they were not selected.
