I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Plaster Group (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2019
Interview
A call with the recruiter then a meeting with a couple of team members. The meeting was set up in a very laud Starbucks locations, ended up sitting in a way of people coming and going and everything echoing in the very tall industrial ceiling. With three people involved, was extremely difficult to hear and focus. One of the worse interview set-ups I ever experienced.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Was talking about creating a solution for a client and then changing it after having a meeting regarding the solution because I realized that their priorities were different from other similar situations. One of the interviewers is asked :"Tell me the exact moment when you changed your solution"
I applied online. I interviewed at Plaster Group (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2016
Interview
Two rounds of interviews: both were behavioral type interviews where you'd describe experiences you've had in the past. When you pass through the interview rounds you are placed into a contingent offer status where they look for a project for you and then will staff you after interviewing with the client. For me that is where the friction was, I was left in that stage for many months and not presented many opportunities, with a lack of clear or frequent communication. I thought the consultants I interviewed with were smart and would be good to work with, but the interview process was fragmented after the initial offer stage.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Plaster Group
Interview
A small, but growing firm that is eager to find specific help for its clients. The interview process is thorough and very pleasant. The HR team and principals in the company dig into the details of your expertise and ability to relate to others.
The firm is a blend of staff augmentation and core business. During the hiring process it is very hard to determine into which camp you are being slotted.

Question 1
The interview process seemed geared to drive out individuals willing to work more than 40+ hours, which is unusual for a consulting firm.
