Shortly after applying online, a recruiter contacted me and asked about my available time. I quickly responded, and to my surprise this turned out to be the end of the email exchange. The recruiter just seemed to disappear into thin air. I am quite stunned about how unprofessional this is and am glad that I didn't waste my time any further.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at WeWork in Jun 2014
Interview
First I had a phone interview. Then I was offered to come in for an in-person interview. I was given an assignment before coming to the interview. It required you to answer questions broken down into categories applicable to the job description including research, marketing, sales, and customer service. I met with the hiring manager who was very kind and told me I would be meeting with 2 of the hire ups. I had to wait a little bit because they had a last minute meeting but luckily I took the day off work so I could be flexible. The 2 gentleman that I met were a perfect combination of serious and professional but polite and not threatening which put me at ease. It was probably the most thought-provoking and challenging interviews I've ever experienced, but I left leaving extremely satisfied. Even though I wasn't sure if the position was going to be offered to me, I learned so much from that interview process alone. The questions they asked were ones I never thought about answering. This challenging interview made want to work at WeWork that much more because I like feeling challenged and having to think. After the interview, I immediately e-mailed the 2 men I interviewed with and the hiring manager thanking them for the opportunity. Did a few follow up e-mails until they offered it to me. I'm sure they had quite a few candidates before they decided I made the best fit. Persistence is key sometimes when you really want something. Then I finally got the call that I was offered the position and I was ecstatic! They e-mailed me the offer letter then invited me to their Headquater opening party the day after I submitted my offer letter. I had a blast and made fast friends with my coworkers. Overall pretty great hiring and interview process.
