I applied online. I interviewed at GT's Living Foods in Aug 2025
Interview
Applied and heard from the recruiter within 24 hours. I was told to submit my availability and then I would be emailed a confirmation. I had to follow up to receive a confirmation email. Once their internal recruiter called me (late) she asked me to tell her about my experience, I shared my experience and was met with silence, no engagement, no follow up questions about my experience. The last question she asked me is If I have experience with the platforms they used, I had some but not all. The one platform I didn't have experience in was an internal filling system (which is easy to trail). She ended the interview and said that they were looking for candidates that experience in all the platforms they use. They were not willing to train anyone. She also mentioned that I should be applying for an associate role - even though she knows nothing about the platforms and how they are used (she had to look it up during the interview).
I think it shows a lot about the leadership (or lack thereof) if they are not willing to train new hires on platforms. Every company uses different platforms based on their needs so there is always going to be a chance that a new hire used something different.

Interview
I recently interviewed for a role at GT. The process started with an email a few weeks after applying to confirm my availability, followed by a phone screen a few days later. The recruiter was professional, asked about my previous experience, and wanted a walkthrough of my prior role and leadership responsibilities.
The company is founder-led, which has both its advantages and challenges. From what I gathered, employees need to be adaptable to leadership’s schedule, with work hours sometimes shifting based on company needs—for example, later starts if there’s an evening meeting or early finishes if there’s a morning one. This flexibility appears to be a key expectation, along with a floating work-from-home day that depends on business priorities.
The role itself is fully on-site, with working hours set by the company. While this setup might work well for some, it could present challenges for those with young children unless they have a full-time stay-at-home partner. Leadership is actively shaping the organization, with the founder focusing on building the company in a way that allows for more balance in their own life.
Overall, my impression was that the company values flexibility and dedication to its mission. If you're comfortable with an evolving structure and leadership-driven scheduling, this could be a good fit.
Based on these details I know this isn't a fit for me so I declined to move forward in the interview process.

Interview
Met with various department heads to get an understanding of the business and expectations. Everyone I spoke with was positive and engaging on what their divisions were responsible for, the culture of the organization, and how HR can best support their teams.
