I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Irvine Company (Irvine, CA)
Interview
Went in for an in person interview which went incredibly well. I have several years of customer service and sales experience as well as my real estate license. I was more than qualified for the position and they seemed very excited about me and my professionalism. I was wrong. It became clear after I wasn't offered the position that they value a college degree over real world experience which is a shame being that I am extremely educated degree or no degree. At the end of the day it was their loss and if they continue to hire people because they look good on paper than that will be detrimental to their company's future and not to mention wasting their own time.
