I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at The Container Store
Interview
Simple straightforward phone call. Applied online then got an email. Couple days later got another email to set up phone interview. Very straight forward phone call for about 20 minutes.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Container Store (White Plains, NY) in Aug 2017
Interview
The process (when I was hired) was multiple interviews in the style of Fortune 500. You are reviewed by more than one manager and than a consensus decision is made. It is not easy to get hired. They look for a personality type coupled with strong experience in customer service. This is akin to being hired for an ivy league job with only 2% making it.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Container Store
Interview
Started by applying like any normal job, I was given a phone interview and was interviewed by Gwendolyn Houston-Jack who was soooo rude and basically told me that this company doesnât offer growth opportunities. She would ask a question Iâd answer and then she would question my answer and pick at everything I said. I am great at interviews and Iâve never felt so uncomfortable in my life!! In so may words she said that Iâd be stuck with the position I was applying for. I asked her âWhat would you say is the most difficult task in this position?â And she replied âthereâs no task thatâs difficult HAHA Iâd would say our egos are just so big!â Terrible terrible ârecruiterâ. Advice to this company if youâre living by the principle â1 great person equals 3â then FIND A NEW RECRUITER!!!!
