Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Postmedia Network (Toronto, ON) nel mese di feb 2011
Colloquio
There were 3 interviews in total. One was over the phone and two were done in person. The HR administrator and hiring managers were very easy going. I was asked to describe my previous work experience in detail and discuss some of my competencies which could translate to the job I was interviewing for.
I had no experience in media, advertising or publishing but my knowledge of their product offerings and consumer electronics was what won them over.
The interviews seemed very informal and I felt overdressed (suit) as the managers were wearing jeans and dress shirts.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
I had a blackberry at the time and the hiring manager had an iPhone. I was quickly asked which of the two I preferred and why. The purpose of the question was to see why I had chosen the blackberry and to see if my answer included any technical reasons (resolution, qwerty keyboard, expandable memory capacity, etc)
