      Controller Interview

      Mar 25, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Wayne, PA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deacom (Wayne, PA) in Dec 2015

      Interview

      As someone who been through the interview process many times, both as the interviewee and an interviewer, I found the entire interview process at Deacom to be quick, exciting and refreshing. I was contacted for a phone interview about a week after submitting my application online. The Hiring Manager was kind and professional, but also very obviously knowledgeable and passionate about the company. She's the primary reason my attitude went from "Yeah, I'll go for it" when I applied to "This is the place I need to be!" after the phone screen. Her love of the company is infectious! For years, as an interviewer, I had my "standard" questions that I would ask - "What are your biggest strengths & weaknesses?", "What is the biggest challenge you've ever faced, and how did you overcome it?", etc. So, coming into the in-person interview process at Deacom, with the Wonderlic test, the deductive reasoning questions, the benefits presentation and even the accounting question, it made it really clear to me that this wasn't your standard, run of the mill company. They forced me to think outside the box a little, and that's something that I loved. My skills and qualifications for the job were very clear on my resume, so the interview process took the time to get to know me, who I am and how I think. A good "fit" between the interviewee and the company and its culture are just as important to a successful work experience as your skills and qualifications, so it makes perfect sense, and is appropriate and necessary, that this be addressed in an in person interview. If you go into the process with an open mind, you'll likely come out with a rewarding experience.

      Financial Controller Interview

      Dec 8, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Wayne, PA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deacom (Wayne, PA) in Dec 2015

      Interview

      First contact was through email to coordinate a phone screen. The phone screen went well and led to an in-person interview. The interview started with a laptop being put in front of me and being asked to take a Wonderlic test. This was a first for me, however I was assured that this is the norm for NFL quarterbacks. Next I was asked to write an email to a customer about a scenario created by the hiring manager. Once that was done, the in-person interview was started and let me just say that the phone screen and in-person interviews were night and day. The questions asked were more appropriate for a sales or customer service type role and had nothing to do with the position being applied for. Once the HR portion was completed, the Chief Operating Officer came in and asked a few questions. Very little time was spent reviewing the benefits summary that was asked to be completed as a "homework" assignment for the interview. In addition, questions had not much to do with the actual position but maybe more of getting a feeling of whether there would be a cultural fit with the company. In any event, the interview left me with an odd feeling and declined to move further with the process.
