I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2018
Interview
Had a round with recruiter then in-person with team (Director, two SFA, and Manager). Was passed due to leadership qualities. This was very odd as no one brought up questions about leadership during my interview.

Resume walk-through, what you did at prior company.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
Interview process was as follows:
30-minute call with recruiter
1st round with 3 managers and 1 VP
The team asked for me to come back, recruiter told me an offer was going to be made, I provided my references (they use an online reference check where your references will fill out answers to questions online)
2nd round with hiring manager, VP, GVP
Additional info: I must say that the recruiter was very unprofessional. They misguided me into thinking an offer was going to be made. When I got the final decision, the recruiter said "the team turned you down for the role". It just felt very unprofessional. A simple "we have decided to go another direction" would have been more appropriate. My experience with the recruiter may cause me to shy away as it left a very poor impression on me. Recruiters should know that they are the face of the company for external candidates.
