      Director Interview

      27 Jan 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Paramount

      Interview

      We live in an experience centric world and hoping this feedback is received and maybe consider changing recruiting practices / hire someone more professional. Recruiter reached out, scheduled time with me. I am someone who is in back to back meetings all day and shifted schedule to make time for this call. On the day of less than 1 hour before our call, he sends me a note "something came up" asking to reschedule. Totally ok, I get it things happen, so I provided additional times, even into the next week in case if this week wasn't great for him. Crickets... I followed up on Friday before end of the week... Crickets... Someone else in another review wrote that they were "ghosted" so maybe this is their common practice at Paramount. I am so grateful that all of my former companies actually show their candidates that they care and live by what they say on their website, reflected on how they treat their employees. Recruiting is so important because you're attracting future employees, but if this is the quality of your recruiters, makes me question the quality of employees brought in.

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Paramount

      Interview

      Applied on their website and a recruiter reached out to me about a week or so later. The interview process was relatively average, but lengthy and very drawn out (~3 months). I had three interviews, three assignments, and a final round presentation. The recruiter wasn't communicative at all throughout the process, and I would have to regularly follow up to schedule the next phases. After all that work and time, I was then ghosted at the final round for 3 weeks, and the recruiter wouldn't respond to my emails to provide an update. I later found out they promoted someone internally for the role. Overall, a very disappointing and unprofessional experience.

      Question 1

      Why do you want to work at ViacomCBS? Do you watch any of the shows? What about those shows do you like?
