I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Genesis10 in Jul 2011
Interview
Original contact was made through LinkedIn via a recruiter. This led to a phone interview, during which he/she assessed my general qualifications for the position and whether I would be a good fit for the company. He/she also asked me about location preference. It is extremely important to be honest in this portion, otherwise you will be marketed for jobs that you would not take. Do not say you will be more flexible than you are willing to be just to get to the next round. After that point, he/she will tell you to look for an email indicating whether or not you made it to the next round.
If you make it to the next round, you will be in a larger group (mine was about 10 people). They will explain that they want you to work in a small group to design a process and present it to a larger panel of interviewers later in the day. You will have the rest of the session to work with your team on the process, with each of you being pulled out one at a time to talk with groups of two interviewers.
For these two to one interviews--MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DONE YOUR RESEARCH. Knowledge of the company REALLY impresses them. Know your answers to the questions provided by the recruiter. Remember their names, they will probably be the ones sitting in on your presentation, and are allowed to ask questions. If you can call on them by name, that's even more impressive.
During the presentation, be prepared for some curveballs. They want to see how professional you are. Keep your cool and be confident in your answers.
Finally, ask good questions. Make them confident that you will leave a positive impression wherever you go, and that you will make them look good at your client company.
The phone interview was rescheduled twice. Afterwards I was told the position no longer existed. Not the worst interview I have ever had but still somewhat negative.
Did an initial phone interview, which went well and was basic. Then had an in person with the recruiter, which also went well and was told of possible options for projects. Kept in touch for a while, but they seemed to be very unorganized and have no idea of what is going on. Seems like they just want to get you set up with a company then hope you get hired, so not really the business consulting organization they try to sound like.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Genesis10 in Apr 2012
Interview
Be prepared to wait -- a very, very long time. I meet the recruiter at a career fair in December, Phone interview in February, in person interview in March, group/case interview (that I had to skip classes and drive 1.5 hrs and pay for parking with no re-imbursement) in April. Then, finally, a interview with the client in late April. The client said I wasn't right for that position but that they liked me and that genesis 10 should keep applying me for positions which we required less experience. It is now early June and I found out from several resources that they were not even submitting my information to the client, even when I would often be filling out applications for the positions. When I tried to contact the recruiter and the delivery manager they ignored me... except once when the delivery manager actually answered because she confused my phone number for a client! She said she would call me back but not surprisingly she didn't. I am very upset as a turned down several very good offers while waiting for Genesis 10 to get back to me/get a job for me/or at least submit my information to the client!!!! I am now working with a different staffing/consultant service provider with a local office.
In Summary: Be prepared to waste a lot of time for nothing. The staff at Genesis 10 is way overbooked or simply just too good to give you the time of day. If you are interested in this type of service find a different company that has a local office and is willing to at least reply to your e-mails.
