I attended an "Open Houzz" Came in with a group. Watched an 10 to 15 min presentation on what "Houzz" is about, and what you would be doing in the position applied for. After the video we then waited to be called individually for our race 1st round of interviews. I chatted with the other canidates and made small talk. I even saw someone I've worked with before!! We went thru the app that "Houzz" offers talked about their products!! I was stoked!! I was called up for the 1st intetview...It went great!! The "Houzz"employees are outgoing, inviting, and overall welcoming!! I made it past the 1st interview!! Yayy!! Then I was scheduled for an final/ role play interview for the next day!! Final/ role play intetview included an recruiter that called in and stated that we sent her the wrong color for the pillow that she ordered. This is where you would need to know how to empathize and sympathize, and be convincing to make the customer at ease and happy!! I did great on that portion, even the recruiter stated I did great!! The final interview was with the same recruiter I had the role play with. It was more in detail about my past employment, what I liked disliked. We went over salary, hours of operation, pto, company paid insurance, do you have any planned trips. This overall experience was great!!!! Background check has been started, now I'm just waiting on the phone call with the offer to start!! Fingers crossed!!

I was approached by Kirstyn Sullivan on LinkedIn asking if I would be interested in a position at Houzz. I agreed and we scheduled a call to introduce ourselves and see if it would be a good fit. After she told me more about the company and position and I gave my past work experience, we both felt like it would be a good idea to move along. I then had my first in person interview which went well and lead to the role play interview. We weren't able to do the role play interview in person, however, we later did it over the phone the following week.

Three part interview process. I was recruited via LinkedIn, after which I had a pleasant telephone interview. Afterwards I had another pleasant Skype interview. About two hours after the Skype interview, I was invited to the Nashville office for the third part of the interview which consisted of a roleplay and another Skype interview. The interviewer was 20 minutes late. The roleplay was okay, but extremely awkward due to my obvious lack of training and no background regarding the website or such a telephone call. The Skype interview itself was extremely negative, it was centered solely on my weaknesses, talking about my negative experiences and attributes, ect.. He couldn't seem to crack a smile and he acted as though he had something better to do.
