The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Xerox in Dec 2010
Interview
Was biased from the beginning due to internal decision to hire specific group of people - interviewees were not cognizant of this fact at the time. the jobs were eventually given to a group of people that were being let go from current position. This was received very poorly by almost all applicants for this position. Skill testing was fair and unbiased but decision making was definately biased.
Phone call with a recruiter. Sounded like he was reading from a script and was unsure of themselves. Didnt ask any behavioral questions except why you want to work in sales. It is an outside field sales role for the sales executive position.
The interview process was not difficult. I had 3 and they all last about 30-45 mins. First with a recruiter and then 2 with the hiring manager. One video call interview and one in person interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The question were really get to know you type questions and not the typical “tell me about a time” questions.
The recruiter no-showed our scheduled interview. I waited in the M.S. Teams video waiting room for 20 minutes and he never showed up. Extremely unprofessional - I never received a cancellation or a response to my follow up emails. I looked up my recruiters linkedIn and it shows his location is in the Phillipines?
