Domande di colloquio per Program Launch/Implementation Manager presso Achievers

The first interview was done with a group of about 20 other candidates. I was notified by email that I was invited to an "Info session" for the position I had applied for. The HR person would pose a question to the room and each person would take turns answering it. Questions were basic behavioural interview style (i.e.. "Tell us about a time when you dealt with a difficult person") Overall the interview was very fair. Then there was a second interview with just myself and two individuals who were currently in the role. They went over my resume and asked me various questions about it. I had the opportunity to ask additional clarification questions about the role. It was a very reasonable interview. I found their HR people to be rather phoney - fake smiles and all. I understand that interviewing people all day can be boring but for the sake of professionalism I think they should try harder to at least appear interested in what candidates have to say. The Achievers culture seemed exciting and entrepreneurial but also kind of intimidating and intense. They have a "work hard play hard" philosophy where everyone wants to be their personal best. This mantra sounds great in company brochures; however, after spending some time there and sensing the intense culture of achievement I wondered whether these people can work as a team. I can say with certainty that this company is not for everyone. The best advice I can give anyone interviewing at Achievers is to get a sense of the unique company culture and really think about whether it's the right environment for you - regardless of the job you're applying for.
