J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. J'ai passé un entretien chez Aerotek (Kalamazoo, MI)
Entretien
my recruiter was out of the office prior to the day of my interview hence another recruiter was assigned to "prep" me for the interview. during our phone call, she only told me the name of the hiring manager. that's it!!!! she had no clue about anything else. upon giving them my 2-week notice, it's her again. she asked me all kinds of questions which i already told her i did not feel comfortable answering, such as who my new employer was, why i was looking for a new job, what my new employer does. seriously?!?!?! why wouldn't i keep looking for a full time job when they've got me an hourly job without a termed contract?!?! what was with the interrogation? bad attitude too. I'm glad that she wasn't the one working with me to get the job I had. I will be calling her boss tomorrow to give him some feedbacks. (Aerotek Kalamazoo, MI)
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
"Did you tell your recruiter that you were looking?" Of course not! Why would I have to tell him that I was looking for a longer term job? Isn't it obvious when you have an open-ended contract which can end any day you should be keeping an eye open? What made it worse was that she was asking as if I was committing a crime.
It was a Basic overview of skills. What experiences you have so they can help determine what position they can align with you. Overall it was easy but a useful experience.
Beware! You will get bait and switched. First they will change the position from permanent to contract after telling you they are scouting to fill a permanent position. Interview was fine. You will probably get low balled, and they might backflip and offer 50% more when you walk. Still, you won't be able to see important details of contract until late in negotiations. You want to read the contract language carefully. You will probably find a steep monetary clawback trap clause or similar language vaguely buried in fine print for not completing duration of contract, for any unspecified reasons. If you were brave enough to waste your time and you got the trap contract, they won't drop the clawback language. I suggest you string them along, drag out the process, verbally accept but never sign the contract, waste their time, and treat them like they treat their contractors.

Question 1
We can't drop the clawback language, so will you accept if the rate is doubled?
Super simple, a joy to work with the recruiter. She helped me customize my resume and find jobs that I wouldn't typically be interested in. She also helped me prep for my interviews and met with me the morning before. she followed up with several companies that offered me jobs to get me the best pay and best fit.
