I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Velocity Resource Group (Tampa, FL) in Apr 2018
Interview
Very detailed as far as responsibilities and HR Director, Sales Manager were very polite and didn't hide anything as far as day to day grind. Also ended up speaking with the CEO on the phone for about a 20 minute conversation. It was refreshing to be able to speak with all parties involved with upper level management. They seem to really care about their employees and also seem very serious about getting work done. The best rule they have is "no drama in the work place". Loved that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Does sitting at a desk making 100-150 calls a day bother you?
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Velocity Resource Group in Sep 2017
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter, saying they found my resume in LinkedIn, asked if I'd be interested in an Inventory Management role. I agreed to speak with them, gave them my availability. 5 minutes later, I received a call and voicemail from a 2nd recruiter saying he will be conducting my interview, please give him a specific day/time to call me, as all my listed days/times were fine with him. I emailed him a response, everything was set.
He was late. I was finally able to send of an inquiring email to check I had the right day/time (which I knew I did, because I had it in worrying) and make sure there wasn't a problem. He called, 16 minutes late by now, very apologetic, said he'd written 11:30 instead of 11. Ok, mistakes happen.
He had very little information about the role; most of what he said was just repeating what the email had said and other filler conversation. I was asked only 3 or 4 questions, but never given the opportunity to ask any in return, which is thoroughly odd in any interview. The one question I was able to ask was in response to a statement he'd made, but he quickly reminded me of a recruiters purpose in the hiring process, that he didn't know anything about the role, that I wouldn't even be able to contact him regarding the role after today, etc. Also very unusual.
The entire "interview" lasted exactly 14 minutes and the call ended exactly at 11:30, despite having started 16 minutes late. The biggest red flag: he asked me what my current salary is at my current place of employment. Not only odd and unethical, but illegal.
Needless to say, I will not deal with this recruitment agency again.
