I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Royal Caribbean Group (Miami, FL)
Interview
Royal farms out its recruiting process to "hiring partners" who presumably get a financial cookie for each successful new recruit. Getting an interview with a hiring partner is relatively easy. But they may sit on your successful interview for some time without forwarding this on to the actual company. I had some success by interviewing with several hiring partners for Royal. This pressed them as each one wanted the cookie.
Questions asked by these partners reveal quickly that the partners do not know what they are talking about. Just deal with it and make it to interview 2 at which point you are speaking to actual employees who actually do understand the skillsets required.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Be ready to explain specific troubleshooting process. Demonstrate that you can solve unexpected problems quickly. Demonstrate knowledge on the specific equipment that the company owns (Digico, Yamaha). They specifically want to know this. Experience on Soundcraft desks (and not theirs) will probably not get you the job.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Royal Caribbean Group (Miami, FL) in Oct 2012
Interview
The interview process was what you would expect from a company with a very multicultural workforce. I had a skype interview with one of there hiring partners maybe a week after submitting my job application. After I was approved by the hiring partners, I had a phone interview with the people from the head office.
