      Marketing Project Manager Interview

      May 4, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Compass (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2017

      Interview

      Applied for the position online, and was quickly sent an automated email stating that I didn't meet the qualifications for the position. Then, ~3 days later, I get a call from one of the managers on the team that the team director liked my resume and cover letter, and had a 30 minute chat about my background, my interest in the role, etc. Put me in touch with his counterpart that was actually in the building where the development took place, and had an in-person interview with her (standard job questions - how would I handle certain projects/situtations, etc.) that seemed to go well. She hadn't looked at my resume before the in person, but took notes on a copy I provided to her. Next, I heard from their Senior Recruiter on the position, who talked to me for about 20 minutes on the role, and more of the process related parts of the job interview. I was due up next to speak with the Senior Director of the whole team, and prepared for that. That was about a 45 minute call, and it went fine. Follow-up was done, and they had me do 2 back-to-back video conference screens with the CFO (who is closely tied to this line of the business) and another senior leader on the operations side that (I believe) comes in to see if the candidate is a good cultural/business fit. Both discussions went OK - very little conversation about how this role will provide benefit (even if I asked questions about it) and more about the organization overall, where the future of New Developments is for Compass etc. I came in as a candidate without the Real Estate background (which was not a requirement for the role, but apparently was what got me screened out in the first round), and it was articulated that it was a mild concern for the team, but not something insurmountable, and they wanted me to be strongly considered for the role. This hesitation was brought up again and again in the higher round interviews as well. Ultimately, the Senior Recruiter wrote me a semi-haphazard email (grammatical errors, etc.) that said they were going to pass on my candidacy for the position, and alluded to the fact that it was my lack of real estate experience that was the cause. It was disappointing and unprofessional for them to follow up in this manner, and really capped off a poorly managed job interview process, with a lack of structure and a clear lack of understanding what they wanted from a candidate the whole way through.
