El proceso duró 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en CDW en ago 2011
Entrevista
I heard about CDW through a college job fair. After speaking with a representative of the company, I submitted my resume for review. Two weeks later, I was contacted by CDW's HR department to set up a designated time for a phone interview. When the phone interview took place, I was asked basic questions about my education, work experience, sales experience, what motiviates me, and my career goals. As the interview ended, I was told I would hear back within 2-3 days whether I would be asked to come in for a 1:1 interview or not. Unfortunately, I received an e-mail stating I do not meet the qualifications as other candidates had. If you really want to pass the phone interview, elaborate on your past sales experience, your high competitiveness, and your desire to succeed in a sales position.
Simple and relaxed. Show dedication, persistence and willing to do what it takes to learn and grow your book. Willing to come into office. No prior IT experience needed. Three separate interviews completed.
The interview process was a 3 stage process. 1st - Phone screening with the recruitment agency, 2nd - Phone interview with CDW’s HR, 3rd - Zoom/office interview in person with CDW HR + Director.
Overall 1st screening interview was pretty straight forward and was informed that I would be processed to the next stage and a member of CDW would be in contact next week to arrange a interview. Guess what? A week has passed and no update from recruitment agency or CDW. I’ve sent a email for a update and if the position is still vacant or not? Which is currently pending.
The delayed response with lack of communication and update is a red flag for me as CDW is meant to be a IT Solution company that’s able to quickly problem solve, you would assume organisations skills would be prioritised accordingly. Especially when hiring a positional new candidate.
Hiring process was meant to be a 3 stage interview, 1st interview - outsource hiring firm, quick 30 mins call, 2nd interview - Hiring Manager + Member of Team, 3rd Hiring Manager plus Director.
Passed the 1st interview with ease, was informed immediately that I have passed the 1st screening and a member of CDW will call the next following week. Guess what? The week has passed and I resent a email for a update in regards to the position and if still vacant, currently waiting for a reply from the outsourced hiring company but the entire process seems to be delayed with lack of communication with candidate. Which is a major red flag as you would assume a IT Solution company would be more prompt in both communication and process.
