      Company Planning Analyst/Financial Marketing Effectiveness Analyst Interview

      Mar 9, 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Gap (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2010

      Interview

      This position was in the Gap Outlet division and it was an interview for two different positions: Company Planning and Financial Marketing Effectiveness. The hiring authorities in these two divisions decided to interview the same candidates at the same time because they both felt that they were looking for the same candidate and thus it would be easier to interview candidates for both positions as the qualifications overlap. I was referred to this position back in early January and I received a response from the recruiter immediately. A quick 10 minute screening interview with the recruiter was scheduled a week later. After that phone screening, I received a call immediately to schedule a phone interview the next day with a Manager. I had a 30 minute phone interview with the Manager in the Marketing Effectiveness division and discussed what skills I had and also what the differences between Company Planning and Marketing Effectiveness were. The questions were easy fit questions and I also had to describe what I do in my current job. A week later, I received the call to advance to the next round. The next round was scheduled for two weeks after I received the call. The next round consisted of 5 different interviews. A panel interview with a Senior Analyst from Marketing Effectiveness and a Manager from Company Planning. I also had two one on one interviews with a Director and a Manager from Marketing Effectiveness and an additional two one on one interviews with a Director and a Manager from Company Planning. The interviews were easy and were mostly fit questions. I received the same technical question from the Director in Marketing Effectiveness and the Manager from Company Planning. The technical question asked me to evaluate the effectiveness of opening a Gap store in two different hypothetical locations. For the most part however, the questions were mostly fit and I also had to describe what I used to do in my current position. Four weeks after this interview, I was told that another candidate was chosen. Overall, I had a neutral experience with the whole process. HR was disorganized and took a long time to respond to inquiries. I also was not impressed with any of the people I met during the interview as some of my interviewers (a Director and Manager) did not maintain eye contact and also seemed to be disorganized. The office is quite beautiful however and the culture seems casual as none of the interviewers were dressed in business casual. Jeans seemed to be the norm at Gap. Gap also does not seem to be too open to non retail backgrounds as that seemed to be considered important to get a job there at least from what the interviewers and HR implied even though neither of the positions (which are finance oriented) actually seem to warrant a retail background.
