      Executive Assistant Interview

      Dec 1, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Overland Park, KS
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Robert Half (Overland Park, KS) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      I was contacted by e-mail, and set up an appointment to come in at 1:30 on a Tuesday afternoon, all by e-mail. When I got to the Overland Park, KS office, at 1:30 pm on that Tuesday, there was no one at the desk, and no bell or other means of making myself known. I waited almost five minutes before someone wandered out from a back room. She was quite surprised to see me, and her attitude was borderline accusatory, even after I explained I was there for a 1:30 interview. I discovered that though she had told me 1;30 pm, the person who contacted me had written "2:00 pm" in their date book, and wasn't even in the office. The woman who had "greeted" me scurried back into the back room, then came out again a few minutes later and escorted me to an interview room, telling me that she would find "someone" to interview me. I waited for another several minutes before someone showed up. She introduced herself as a "manager" and conducted a brief interview during which it was painfully obvious she was annoyed with being forced to speak to me at all. She clearly felt I was wasting her valuable time, seeing as how I'm not an accountant, but "merely" an Executive Assistant/Office Manager with an MBA and more than 25 years of experience. She offhandedly mentioned the job I had applied for was "no longer available", but touted several "immediate opportunities" for $10-$12 per hour one or two-day file clerk positions. She emphasized these "opportunities" numerous times throughout the interview, commenting that "even people with advanced degrees like to take these jobs for gas money, or extra pocket cash, or holiday money, or whatever". Her level of insistence about these "opportunities" grew exponentially greater the more I declined to accept one, and when I explained I have two long-term, regular part-time jobs, and what I need isn't "gas money" or "pocket cash" it's a steady, living wage income, the interview was effectively over, even though it lasted a few more minutes, during which time she told me she'd "send me their full range of competence testing". (Which, incidentally, never actually happened). As I was leaving the office around 2:15 pm, the person who had scheduled my interview, and was supposed to interview me, walked in, (coming back from her lunch break, based on the drink and lunch bag she had in her hands). To say I was unimpressed would be a massive understatement. Now, more than a month later, I am even less impressed, as I have never received all that testing, nor have I ever heard back from the woman with whom I originally communicated.

      I interviewed at Robert Half

      Interview

      Questions were “basic” interview questions. Had some of the “tell me a time when you encountered a problem at work and how you solved it?” Felt a little generic at times and that I wasn’t really engaged by the recruiter.
