Phone interview with recruiter was standard, get to know your background. Then in person interview with the hiring manager, pleasant interview, average difficulty questions . Final round of interviews was with the on- site management team, great experience, very friendly. After that was an interview with the HR director. He was not very personable, during interview kept checking emails (kept saying sorry just checking something) then going on about how he just has too high standards. It seemed like he was preoccupied with other things than to give me his full attention during the interview.

Applied for the job and reached out on LinkedIn. The recruiter responded in a couple of days. He had several HR jobs that fit my resume and allowed me to choose. 1st I’ll say this was probably one of the best recruiters I’ve ever worked with in my life. Very responsive. Completely engaging and dedicated to the candidate experience. You have a phone screen, interview with HM, then onsite interview. In this case they flew me to Boston. The people are contagiously nice! It was a great experience. However just be prepared very prepared to for the last interview as it is intense. They ask you for 4 references (all professional) and 2 have to be a former boss and it’s a 20+ question skill survey. Be careful although the skills test doesn’t reference the company, at the end of the survey they ask if the person is interested in opportunities at KDP. So if it’s your current boss be sure you’re transparent. The only downside I would say is their HR department is extremely behind from what I am used to. EXTREMELY behind. While they’re looking to improve there are years and years of improvement ahead of them. In a world where digitization is taking over they’ll need to catch up pretty quick and be careful not to build a model that’s awesome for 2017/2018 and build one that will take them places in 2020. That will help them to be a better partner to the business and drive the business.
