I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CBRE (Southfield, MI) in Dec 2016
Interview
This was a disorganized mess right from step one. Initially, I was contacted by a recruiter, which had much difficulty checking and following up emails, as well holding to appointments that were made for a phone interview. After the phone interview it was approx. a week later that I was contacted for an interview. I was considering a major move in order to take the position, so it was understood that I would be driving a great distance in order to meet them face-to-face. After taking time off of my current job, renting a vehicle and driving a great distance to meet them, the interview seemed to go swimmingly. "By the end of the interview I felt that I was without a doubt going to be offered the position, and was told that I would hear something very quickly (by early the following week). I sent my Thank you and waited. The following week they requested another phone interview, which was a mess trying to situate. The individual was once again terrible at following-up emails and holding to the appointment that was made. After speaking with this individual I was then asked to send along additional materials for her to review. I did as asked and never heard a word (once again email follow-up issues). I then sent a thank you to all of the folks that I had spoken with and conveyed my interest in the position. More than a week had passed so I reached out to the head honcho and asked when I could anticipate hearing something about the position to no avail. Once again I was ignored, there came one additional follow-up after that letting them know that I was still interested and I was beginning to feel like a psycho stalker at this point. And here I am over a month later and no one has bothered to thank you for my time, effort, money or interest or make any sort of an offer and at this point I would not accept an offer either. Who wants to work for a company that doesn't even have the courtesy to respond to an email after you bent over backwards for them.
I applied online. I interviewed at CBRE in Apr 2026
Interview
Had a zoom call with the hiring manager about two weeks ago, had another call with a team of brokers a week and a half ago, and with another team last Wednesday. I’m going in this Wednesday to meet everyone and some additional people in person.
Internal recruiter gives you a call. If it’s not a good time to talk, then they will schedule a time to do a phone screening. After that, they pass the notes to the hiring manager to schedule an interview with them. Then after that, you are rewarded with another interview with team members (producers, etc). After that, you’re rewarded with another interview.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CBRE
Interview
A recruiter reached out, then I met with the Operations manager, and then I went in person to meet the team. They really only pressed me about my Adobe experience.....and then the main broker said something about how his team is a "family," and that immediately did not feel genuine. The whole interview felt a little off, honestly.
