      Admissions Associate Interview

      Aug 29, 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at General Assembly

      Interview

      Shortly after I applied, I got an email to set up a phone interview for the next day. It was about 20 mins and he just asked what my experience was and why I wanted to work at GA. Then he spent most of the call explaining the position and company. Then got an email to set up another phone interview with the director the following day. More else ended up being the same phone call though he did ask me to briefly pitch GA to a potential student. Not too difficult so long as you look over the site beforehand. I was then emailed again to set up an in person interview for the following week. I met with about 5 people who all asked the same questions: tell me about your last job, describe a difficult customer and how you handled it, and do you have any questions for me. It was a bit odd since none of them had my resume nor did they ask for it or seem to know what was up. It got a little frustrating that the interviewers didnt seem totally prepared , having to repeat the same answers over and over again and not having anymore questions to ask seeing as you're meeting with so many other interviewers who answered anything you could possibly wonder. They stress how low pressure the work environment is and how productive they are in spite of that. I agree, it did look like a very lax environment but I do wish they took the interview process more seriously.
