      Administrative Assistant Interview

      Feb 5, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Moss Point, MS
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Southern Company (Moss Point, MS) in Jan 2016

      Interview

      After an online application and evaluation, I was invited to take the SASS test. The test was not difficult and a couple days later I called to find out that I had a passing score (pass or fail - no grade). I was invited for an interview about 3 months later. The interview was in the Staff conference room with 5 other people. They took turns asking questions. writing down my answers and notes. The process came down two of us but I was not the winner.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The questions were completely text book. Two days before the interview, I googled how to answer interview questions. The first page I clicked on listed 31 questions with proposed ways to answer these questions. I swear to you .. they asked me 30 of the 31 questions.

      I applied online. I interviewed at Southern Company (Birmingham, AL) in Nov 2016

      Interview

      Interview process was thorough but exactly what you would expect for a company its size and stature. You're vetted regarding your experience, actual skills, group/panel interview, and then more intimate interview. Then basics - background check, drug screening, psy. profile/references.
