      Account Manager Interview

      Oct 9, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at AOL (New York, NY) in Sep 2015

      Interview

      Applied through 3rd party website, got an e-mail in just a few hours, scheduled phone interview, right after the phone interview, scheduled in person interview with 3 different people. The in-person interviews were very long. And while I was getting interviewed, the two interviewers seemed to really like me and their use of words seemed like I was going to get an offer, such as, "when can you start?", "you're really going to like it here, everyone is nice, very smart, and hardworking," etc. ; however, the last of the 3 in-person interview, the interviewer was very rude. She did not prepare to interview someone at all and had her lap top opened, doing her work, while talking to me. She would say things like, "uhh.. so what school did you go to?" "hmm... how'd you find this job and apply for it?" "hmm, uh.., yea whatever" It was a waste of my time and very unprofessional. After my interview, I didn't hear back for 2-3 weeks. I emailed the HR Coordinator/Recruiter trying to confirm if the offer/no-offer notice was coming soon because I had gotten an offer from another company but I would've ideally chosen AOL. She said the hiring manager is on vacation and hasn't gotten back to her.. Another 2 weeks later, an offer came but I already obviously accepted another offer... I think that was rude and inconsiderate of a candidate's time... No matter if the candidate got the job or not, or whatever, they should treat them with respect and standard business manners.

      Answer question

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AOL (New York, NY) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      Call with recruiter, then hiring manager, then in person interview with about 5 people, then calls with 2 other team members. Most of the interviews were conversational, informal and more about getting to know each other and setting expectations for the job. Although the process was long, the recruiters did a great job following up quickly and moving things along.

      How much money do you think McDonalds makes in an hour? Other than this question, most of the interview process was more conversational.
