The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Arhaus in Sep 2013
Interview
Standard. Great District Manager during interview- disappeared after hire with zero follow up. More about personality match without being threatening to management staff than about actual skills. Assistant Manager was her usual unpleasant self. Hoped she was having a bad day but it turns out that she's nasty everyday.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a fast paced environment? (it's not)
Unfortunately, my interview experience was disappointing. The interviewer called several minutes late and had a poor connection, which made the conversation difficult to follow at times. What stood out most, however, was the lack of engagement. I was asked very few questions, and instead, the majority of the time was spent listening to the interviewer speak at length about their personal connection to the company's founder.
It felt more like a monologue than a conversation, and I left the call with very little understanding of the role, the team, or what they were looking for in a candidate. I had been excited about the opportunity, but the experience left me questioning how seriously they take the hiring process.
