Colloquio
One of the most intensive interviews I've been on for this type of position. Most companies I've had experience with will do a phone interview and then an in-person interview, here there's the phone, written, in person, and second in person with tests along the way. Not saying this is a bad thing though, they just know what they're looking for and want to make sure they're not wasting their time. I see a lot of people have said the interview process is extremely difficult. Although there are many stages, the actual interviews are not too difficult at all. It felt more like a conversation to me, and they ask you pretty expected questions, nothing to trick you. As mentioned in other posts, some of the questions are repetitive but they're all from different people so they're just trying to get to know you and your skills as well.
Although the there were a lot of steps, the process was quick and I heard back within a day of each interview, except the final it took a little less than a week which is expected. Everyone was extremely helpful and kind along the way.

It was very long and drawn out which seems to be a common thread. They say it's to get to know you better and that it's good because you also get to know them better. I would agree, except they really don't give you time to actually get to know them since they have a ton of very structured questions they go through and repeat the same questions in each round.
Most of the people at least try to be friendly but it didn't seem genuine because they stick to the script so much that there isn't room for any personalization. It feels like they're going through the motions. For example, candidates have to do a presentation on personal values. After talking all about my personal values, I just got a "that's great" type of response and then was repeatedly asked the same questions from the previous interview round. If you're going to make candidates spend time crafting a presentation, it would be nice to ask some questions and dig further into their values to learn more about them on a human level.

Started with the traditional HR phone screening, then your given a written assesment to complete within 24 hours, then they had me come into the office.
The interview process was the longest and most intense I have ever experienced, especially for an entry-level position. There was no personality to it, it was all down to business (maybe that was just my interviewer though). For over an hour the interviewer asked the most extensive list of questions, demanding you list 3 of everything and often rephrasing them in different ways immediately after. Then, for another hour, I was given a written test to test logic, reasoning, and grammar. The questions were not related to the industry at all. Make sure you study cooking conversions (i.e. how many tablespoons in a gallon) or else you'll be penalized on the test.
The interview completely turned me off from working there, because I felt that they had candidates jumping through hoops for entertainment, not to see if they're qualified. I'm also not sure what company culture they were bragging about because no one talked or looked up from their computers in the whole office. In my experience this is not normal for agencies, and it was a huge red flag.
