Keller Williams interview questions

I interviewed from a referral. My resume was emailed to the contact at KW. They emailed me some questions to answer, which I immediately did. Two weeks later they asked if they could call me for a phone interview. That went quickly, they told me the job expectations and asked if I was o.k. with everything. Then they emailed me a timed assessment to take. It felt like SAT questions where you had to fill in sentences with a given word bank, look at a picture and select the pictures that are the same shape at a different angle, pick which word in a series of several that best describes you, select a word in a series of several that doesn't describe you, out of several words which 5 are related in some way, and finally which word in the word bank is the most closely related to the given word. They contacted me to do an in-person interview. I went in and they went over my test results saying I scored very high and was recommended for an executive position. I figured since I scored high they would ask me 2-3 questions as a formality and offer me a position. WRONG! The lady had a stack of about 30 pages and we only got through half. The pages were results of my assessment and she would read a statement and ask me to rate it on a scale of 1-10 of how close the assessment was to myself. For example: "The test shows you are great at solving puzzles. You piece them together in a methodical nature to figure out how to solve the problem. You do well tackling tasks and can handle high critical thinking positions." I rate myself, and then I'm asked why I gave myself the rating. It is then finally followed up with a behavioral question (ex "Tell me about a time you had to solve a problem at work. What was the problem, how did you solve it, what was the outcome?") After doing this 15 times she was notified she had a meeting to go to that she was late to. She asked if I had any questions. I asked a couple and the final one was inquiring when I should expect to hear back from her. She said we still had to do another stack of questions and she would call me to schedule that next week. Seriously!?! Am I applying to be the CEO of Keller Williams, because I thought I was applying for an administrative assistant. I am not going forward with the second part of the interview. I could make more money at Costco being a cashier, and their interview process isn't as intense and time consuming.

It is a very thorough interview process that takes several meetings. You take an online personality assessment, then review that with a staff member, then go through a personal/professional history, references, interviews with regional directors, and a defense panel.
