Canada Drives Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Canada Drives (Richmond, BC) in November 2020.

Interview

I was brought in for a role I didn't apply for. Durring interview it was disclosed the job I applied for wasn't available to external applicants (bait and switch?) and the role they interviewed me for was I'll defined. It's bad when the hiring manager is unwilling to answer difficult questions. Its just predatory auto lending folks, nothing new, nothing special.

Interview

I applied online and within the same day received a phone call asking questions about my application. At the end of the call we set up a time for me to come into the Vancouver office for an in person interview. I began the interview by talking with an HR representative that asked me questions about my expectations and about my previous experience. They were very thorough and helpful in answering any and all of my questions. Afterward they had me sit with a team lead and answer more questions and afterward I was taken to . Overall the interview was almost 2 hours, which was a bit exhaustive and unnecessary. While in the office for such a long period of time I began to feel that it wasn't the right fit and that the environment was a bit intense. Everyone on the Canada Drives team that I spoke to were very welcoming and friendly but once they began to describe the work they do in-depth I felt uneasy about the opportunity.

Interview was scheduled in a locked-off floor. Left waiting in lobby for entry until an intern was sent. Waited in a hollow start-up floor divided into two sections of employees; web developers and customer service reps.
HR representative came after 15 minutes to private window area. Interview went 10 minutes before the next interviewee was hustled in before mine was finished.
Asked to wait in lobby again, but just left.
Too many red flags.

Interview

You have to call a mobile number in the lobby and someone is sent to get you, once your brought up to the building you are brought to the social area of the floor to have an "interview" in a quite loud and not private area. The interviewing manager hadn't even looked at my resume prior to my arrival and openly said this. Didn't ask any formal interview questions and basically said what he was looking for and had a casual chat. I then was sat down next to a team member for 10mins to shadow them to see what they did. It didn't show much but made me realize never to purchase a car from Canada Drives. After 10mins or so the manager reappeared saying he had just shot some hoops and brought me to show me the games area. We then sat down to discuss the role more and the benefits and salary. They low ball you to say the least stating that long term it's good for you but that at the start the pay is not good. I was told that the starting was $31K but that I could get $40K for a job that in the industry starts at $45K - $50K. To add the days are 10 hour days with no overtime.

Interview

I was called within hours of applying and set up an interview for the following day. The interview was professional and well organized. I was taken aback because I was told that the customer service representative role was no longer available as they filled three positions (a little odd as I applied the previous day). They offered me two different positions that were not customer service related.

Interview

Applied online got a phone interview just general questions by HR about what I do and what company job role is and called for 1:1 interview next day

The manager who took the interview had so high expectations and had no clue what job description is about asked the same questions, again and again, it was just a waste of time

Next time if you call someone please check what your HR has put job description wanting a guy with 1-2 years to experience not 10 years
