I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Greystar (San Jose, CA) in Feb 2017
Interview
Greystar has an online assessment that must be passed in order to proceed. I would say the timed portion requires focus. The in person interview was good but intense. Be ready to answer standard questions.

Do you know how to use Excel. Reporting is highly important. You must be good at math to send occupancy and lease information weekly.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Greystar (Hayward, CA) in Apr 2026
Interview
I have applied for multiple Assistant Property Manager positions with this company over the past three years. Each time, the process has followed a very similar pattern. I interview with the on-site manager and those conversations typically go very well, leading to the next step with a regional manager.
During these later-stage interviews, I have often been given the impression that I am moving forward in the hiring process or being strongly considered. However, shortly afterward, I receive an automated email stating that I am no longer being considered for the position.
While I understand that hiring decisions can be competitive and complex, the repeated lack of clear communication or feedback after reaching advanced stages of the interview process has been discouraging and frustrating.
Great two stage interview process with different management areas which allowed understanding of all areas which helped give an idea of things to come. The interview was relatively straight forward.
In common parlance, the word "interview" refers to a one-on-one conversation between an interviewer and an interviewee. The interviewer asks questions to which the interviewee responds, usually providing information. That information may be used or provided to other audiences immediately or later.
