Sr Associate Interview Questions

14,181 sr associate interview questions shared by candidates

The initial phone screen was pretty standard and casual. The onsite interview was a total dumpster fire. Flags went up as soon as I walked in the office and saw that the video game in the vestibule and open floor plan. They were clearly trying to mimic a startup. The interview was basically a round robin of conversations with three of the senior leadership. They hadn't bothered to read any of my materials and were reading them on their laptops during the meeting, while clearly doing other things. They were trying to figure out what I 'do'. I did my best to explain but given my background and experience it shouldn't have been so difficult for them to see what skills I could bring to the organization. It might have helped if they had bothered to take even a slight interest in me. They didn't seem to have the first clue about what they were actually looking for, which was probably part of the problem. The one specific question they asked was about a problem they were having on a project. They needed to send some emails and the site wasn't able to do it mostly because it would be practically possible. They asked how I would get the site to make the necessary changes.
