It was a good process over all. Not bad. Interviewer was good with their questions. And I still didn’t get the offer but over all good. They were also on time.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AR Marketing (Columbus, OH) in May 2015
Interview
It was all really weird; I got a reply to my application within 30 minutes of sending it and then the HR rep set up the interview for the next day. After confirming my interview time, I got a follow-up email from the HR rep reminding me to be on time and wear professional clothes...that's when I should have known something was up. What business needs to tell you to dress professionally for an interview? When I got to the office, it sounded like a daycare. Employees were screaming and yelling, supposedly for team-building but it was so deafening I could barely pay attention to the interviewer. He maybe asked me two questions about myself, gave a very minimal job description and then said I wouldn't find out about salary or benefits until the second job interview, which would be a job shadow. I was offered the second interview but immediately turned it down. This is nothing except a well disguised door to door sales job.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AR Marketing (Dublin, OH) in Sept 2014
Interview
My initial impression of the company was a little off... When I went to their website it looked really great but it was done with Wix. There is nothing wrong with a Wix website but a company must spend the less than $100 to remove the Wix ads from the pages. Also, some of their links did not work. I learned that this was a fairly new company so I went ahead and applied anyway. My first interview was very professional but they did make me wait until 45 minute after my scheduled appointment. I understand executives are busy but it is unprofessional to take advantage of someone's time. If I were to be 45 minutes late to the interview I am sure it would not be appreciated. 10-15 minutes off schedule is understandable. I was asked to do a second interview. I arrived early and this time the interviewer was very prompt. He escorted me out of the building and said we were going to Panera down the street and proceeded to follow me to my car. When he asked if it was my vehicle I should have stopped this interview right then. But I was curious (this could have ended terribly, thankfully it didn't). We went to Panera and sat down at a table. Neither one of us ordered anything so they are using a Panera as an office without patronizing it. The interviewer then explained to me their pyramid-eque promotion plan and after 20 minutes he finally came out and said they sell utility services door to door. I stopped him right there and said I could not waste any more of his time. Then I drove him back to the real office building. Overall everyone was very nice but the way they are doing their interviews are scary. Do not ever do what I did. Do not ever let a person you do not know in your personal vehicle. That should have been enough for me but I wanted to hear him out.
