      Training Specialist Interview

      Sep 26, 2013
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Framingham, MA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Staples (Framingham, MA) in Sep 2013

      Interview

      Probably the most frustrating interview process I've ever experienced. my original 3 hr interview was shorten to an 1.5 (for four people). personally, thought it went well - unfortunately, never heard anything, either way, after 3 weeks. (left messages with recruiter and hiring manager). Extremely unprofessional to leave a person hanging.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What was difficult was trying to answer as many questions possible for 3 people in 50 minutes. Felt rushed and it was frustrating (on both ends) since there wasn't enough time to thoroughly understand my background or theirs.
