Aerotek interview questions

I first met with the aerotek recruiter at my school job fair. I signed up on a list to get a phone interview and left my resume. Sure enough, I got a call from the local recruiter at the date/ time specified on the signup sheet. We talked for maybe a half hour at the most. Questions were pretty simple, "What are two words you would use to describe yourself?" "Tell me about a situation that you found challenging, how did you handle it and what was the result?" Here is the information I was able to gather during our time on the phone: How is the recruiting performance based? Residual basis, payed a percentage of the profit the employee brings to the company- until they are permanent What is the base salary for this position? $43,000 What are the typical work hours for this position? 730am-6pm and sometimes weekends, dependent on client needs Can you explain a typical day working in this position? Division- industry expert. Account manager is direct supervisor – meets with the clients, and brings positions back to recruiter. Recruiter identifies candidates- from huge database, and referral recruiting. Lot of autonomy and creativity- company is supportive. Are you recruiting specifically for the San Diego office? Yes- and other offices too She offered me to call her back when I came closer to graduation - but I've decided that this isn't the job for me.

They'll ask you a lot of questions and try to make you at ease. They also like to tag team. Stay clam and professional and knowledgeable about what you're applying for. Ultimately, they thought I was a better fit for another branch and wanted to keep me on file for when that position was open.
