Guidepoint Interview Questions

The interview process was fairly simple. Very nice team that answered all my questions in all 3 of the interviews. The last interview was a mock project and we just spent time going over what I did.

Asked about my experience with funds and the product. The interviewer had asked why I was interested in the company - a recruiter had put my profile forward. Not much feedback

Interviewer was very friendly! She was very genuine, answered any questions I had, and helped me feel comfortable. There is more than one interview and I’ve only had one, but so far so good! (Technically I have more interviews ahead of me, but there was only an option for yes and no on if I got the job or not)

Teams interview- 2 people project manager and vp started with interviewer introducing followed by asking to introduce oneself Scenario when you were competitive 3 strength Can you work under high pressure ? How do you feel about cold calling ? Are you able to speak appropriately with people in high up positions? Why do you want to work for guidepoint? What are your career ambitions?

Basic Interview but did not explain well that it was more of a part-time job. After first interview, you get interviewed another time with the department you might potentially work for.

First interview was mainly just a screener with a school alumnae who tried to get to know me / my interests. Super casual and did not really require prep. Only question was what Guidepoint does to my understanding / resume walkthrough

One interview was pretty painless. Then there was a long pause. Eventually i was dinged. Seems like they were still figuring out what kind of person they wanted to hire.

15 min phone screen with recruiter on Microsoft Teams Asked about my understanding of company, work experience, etc Recruiter was friendly and conversational Job started in late June but I was looking to start working sooner

Initial communication took place via email to coordinate a meeting with a Guidepoint recruiter. Recruiter was pleasant and informative and clearly communicated that I would be notified if I were not to move on. I was selected for the next round of interviews were I met with a senior in the editorial department. This interview ended up being 2 hours (something I wish I was made aware of before to properly plan for the commitment). It was an enjoyable interview and surprisingly "casual". I was moved on to the next round on the spot for an edit test. About a week later I completed the edit test within 24 hours and had my candidacy eliminated the next day. It seems that they don't provide rejection feedback but both the senior and recruiter have accepted LinkedIn connection requests from me amid the expression that I am hopeful a better suited opportunity present itself to transfer my skills at Guidepoint. I was also told the budget for the role was $50k. Also, have questions prepared to ask your recruiter and interviewer!

After going through an initial screening process I got to interview with two other employees on the operations team. I interviewed with each person separately. The first person was nice and was able to effectively engage in conversation. After I finished speaking with the first person I went on to speak with another member of the operations team and did not have a positive experience. She was being very short with me and made me feel like I was the most inconvenient part of her day. I’m pretty sure she wanted to cut the interview short and she pretty much asked the same exact questions as the previous interviewer which seemed counterproductive
