Average Interview – Overall Negative Experience – Yes, and I accepted – Mon, 19 Mar 2018
Interviewed Feb 2,018 (took 30 days)
After a month of interviews for this supposed prestigious company, i can’t believe the BS I went through. Unlike any other review I’ve seen on here, I went through 5, yes 5, interviews. 4 in person and 1 in store. Towards the end ie interviews with the store/regional manager and phone call offer, I was NEVER given the exact dates of training, nor was I told that if i couldn’t make all 3 days of back to back 9-6 training, i couldn’t be hired. What is work life balance, right??? I even told them I’m in school and I could make 2 out of the 3 days, but not the third as I can’t miss 3 classes in 1 day. Apparently this wasn’t good enough, as if I’m expected to drop my life to work with this company. I was constantly told by the manager whom I was in contact with post-offer if I had any thoughts or if maybe it wasn’t the right time and that they should go with other options. It was quite clear he wanted to revoke the offer, yet continued to put it off. I thought I saw a light of day when he said he’d keep my name down Incase something opened up after my semester, but then he said i would have to interview all over again. WHAT?????? Another month and another 5 interviews? No way. Not for a part time retail job. I could say so much more about what went wrong in this hiring process, but if I have any tips for anyone planning to work with this company, make sure the managers hiring you are CRYSTAL clear. The lack of communication on the part of the Apple store I applied to is absolutely horrendous, and they need to take a damn good look at how they handle these things. All things considered, I probably dodged a bullet.
