I applied online. I interviewed at Pearson (Fort Myers, FL) in Jun 2017
Interview
I was scheduled for a phone interview. The phone interview was easy, basic questions. Only two days later got asked to do an in person interview with the manager of the test center. I was interviewed by her and one other lady who works there. They were very friendly. They told me a lot about the company and the position itself and what would be expected of me. They asked several typical interview questions and just about me. I got hired only an hour after my interview.

Interview
The interview questions were pretty standard. I have done a lot of interviews in my lifetime, so it was a breeze. I spent 15 mins polishing and practicing for my interview. Most of the questions were asked via email and a few were asked at my in person interview. All the questions asked at the in person interview were questions that were asked via email.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Pearson (Alhambra, CA) in Nov 2025
Interview
There was an initial interview with the HR recruiter then the manager of the site. They were extremely transparent about explaining the high-stakes nature of the work, what to expect when working, and making sure the job is truly a good fit. It was more explanation than interview, which I appreciated.
There was a glaring absence of professionalism on HR’s part. HR reached out for my availability, which I responded immediately. Then nothing, no response, no update. Months later, I got a generic rejection. HR clearly lacks organization and respect for candidates’ time. A disorganized and careless process.
