      Training Specialist Interview

      1 Jul 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ancestry

      Interview

      It started with a phone screen with the recruiter, she then sent me an online assessment to take. Next, I had a video interview with the manager, senior manager and another team member. They asked me a bunch of non-sense kindergarten questions and asked me if I have a portfolio or website. If I were to move on past this stage I would have had to present.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Who is your current manager and can we speak with them?
      1 Answer

      Question 2

      What would you do if two classmates were in the back talking and not paying attention?
      1 Answer

      Question 3

      What would you do if a trainee told you in class that you didn’t know what you are talking about and nothing you say makes sense?

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Ancestry (Orem, UT) in Jul 2021

      Interview

      I had a single interview with the team manager and team members. They asked relevant questions and focused on creative problem solving. I would recommend work samples, though it is not required.
