I applied online. I interviewed at Cinnaire in Dec 2025
Interview
First you meet with your direct supervisor virtually and it’s a very straightforward interview. Then you do some assessments. Then you meet virtually again with a group of people who ask you 11 behavioral based questions and that is it. There are no questions how about you as an individual or your background and experience. It was a very cold and unproductive interview. Only one member of the team was warm and inviting. It’s been weeks since that interview and I have heard nothing. I have reached out and no response. It has been over 30 days since I applied. That is far too long to drag a candidate through the process. I have conducted interviews for over 20 years and have a high success rate hiring team members and this is probably the most negative experience I’ve had. I’m not sure if I’ll ever hear from someone but even if I received an offer, I would definitely decline. There’s enormous room for improvement in their interview process.

Question 1
Describe a time you had to make someone feel welcome.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cinnaire in Jan 2025
Interview
There are multiple interviews. You first meet with who would be your supervisor. If you do good, you interview with HR, the person in charge of the asset management division and your supervisor. If you make it to the next step, you interview with a consultant.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cinnaire (Lansing, MI) in Jul 2023
Interview
They are transparent about their incredibly lengthy interview process. Mine was 4 steps. First, an excel test. Next, a skills interview. Then a behavioral panel, which was followed by further cognitive testing and another hour-long behavioral. Too long a process for the salary.

Question 1
In the skills it was primarily about my experience in data analysis and specific software. For behavioral it was a combo of data, interpersonal, policy implementation, etc.
