I had a 30 min screening w/ the recruiter, then a 30 min to 1 hr interview w/ hiring manager. The entire process was very fast less than a whole week long as they reply/respond very fast and expect the same of you! I was hired 2 hours after my interview with my hiring manager and got the call from the recruiter
What’s an example of a crisis situation at work you’ve had to deal with and how have you managed it?/ What is a situation in which you had to solve a conflict?
Not a question but they're heavy on pulling specific experiences on resume and asking you to elaborate so make sure you know your resume
and app. materials very well
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at HarperCollins
Interview
Pretty simple and smooth process which I appreciated. Had a call with recruiter/hr coordinator then scheduled call with hiring manager the following day. standard behavioral interview questions and specific things about my resume. received the final decision about a week later.
the interview process went well, the recruiter and the hiring manager were very communicative and made sure to assure me throughout the application process. it lasted about a couple weeks - maybe 3?
