      Graphic Designer Interview

      May 6, 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at ITHAKA in May 2019

      Interview

      I applied online, and a few days later received an email from HR asking me to contact their recruiter to set up an interview through Google Hangouts. Contacted the recruiter, set up a time, and...no show from the recruiter. Six hours later, I get a message asking if I'm ready for the interview; tell her that it's late and ask to reschedule for the next day, same time. Again, I wait, and she doesn't show. Five hours later, another message asking if I'm ready for the interview. By sheer luck, I'm at my computer and respond, and - finally - the interview proceeds. Pretty standard questions about my skillset, how I handle difficult clients, etc. Afterwards, I'm told that she's "submitting my answers to the hiring board." I'm thinking that it'll be a day or two before I heard anything back, but no, within a few minutes I'm informed that they want to hire me. When I ask about next steps - in person meeting, salary, etc. - she tells me that they'll send work to me, and I'll receive assignments via email. And it's a part-time position. This is far removed from what the job posting described and raises more than a few red flags, so I asked for a formal offer letter detailing everything - salary, responsibilities, etc. - before I agree to anything. Still waiting, and the entire process was frustrating. If the interview process is any indication of how the company is run, I want no part of it.

      We are so sorry to hear that this happened to you. Unfortunately, ITHAKA was one organization that was targeted in what appears to be a phishing scam. Someone is posing as employees of an organization and posting fake jobs and then are reaching out with a gmail and holding interviews via chat. We have had the job in question pulled down, posted notices to our career pages and have asked that people send any information or concerns to careers@ithaka.org. We are working with our legal team, but unfortunately there seems to be increased sophistication in these type of scams. Please note, ITHAKA will never communicate with you from a gmail account, nor do we conduct interviews via chat. If we do host a virtual interview, it will include video and voice. We are very disheartened by this situation and strive very hard to be a great employer and to have good candidate experiences. We encourage you to apply directly to openings that you are interested in directly on our career page on ITHAKA.org.
