      Executive Assistant Interview

      Oct 17, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Naperville, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Southern Company (Naperville, IL) in Sep 2017

      Interview

      Email asking for phone screen interview. Then, emailed to come in for panel interview with 3 executives. Behavioral interview style. Very comfortable and conversational interview. HR followed up after about a week and let me know I was still in contention for role. They were interviewing internally then would get back to me. Received email after 2 weeks saying they had gone with someone else. Very informative through the process.
