I interviewed at Helen of Troy (Los Angeles, CA) in Aug 2025
Interview
First round is hirevue self video interview, after several weeks if you make it to the next round its hiring manager then a panel interview. VERY slow process in between and if you dont make it past one of the stages they just ghost you. Main HR/Recruiter does not respond to follow up emails and interviewers were often late and do not respect your time.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Helen of Troy (New York, NY) in Apr 2021
Interview
Interviewed at OXO NYC . First round hiring manager, Second round super day with team and engineering. Third round case study. Honestly loved the team, but people in charge of recruiting is from corp Helen of Troy. Communication is terrible because of that. (the communication between HR and hiring manager was super slow). Made it to the last round and HR told me position is on hold, then a week later said its canceled permanently. I am guessing there was another candidate they selected and wanted to keep me waiting. Little bit dishonest response I suppose.
Thank you for the time and effort you dedicated to us during the interview process. Unfortunately, due to a change in business needs, the position was cancelled during recruitment; we apologize for the challenges you experienced as a result of this. Your feedback helps us improve to ensure our candidates have an exceptional recruitment experience. We appreciate your interest and excitement in working with OXO and Helen of Troy.
