      Support Staff Interview

      Jan 6, 2013
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Jacobs

      Interview

      I met with multiple people I would be working with... they each asked questions, but I don't remember any of them being too difficult. It was obvious one of the interviewers was against my being interviewed, much alone being hired. Later found out that her main issue was that I had asked for my beginning salary to be slightly higher than what her compensation was, so she was offended by my "nerve". The hiring manager actually offered me slightly less than her compensation to keep her happy even though I had more education and experience. However, that wasn't enough as she made it clear to numerous people that she wanted to get me fired. Obviously that didn't happen, as I'm still with the company after 5+ years.

      Question 1

      I honestly don't remember anything that was asked, but nothing struck me as being difficult of unexpected.
