Hot Topic Account Executive interview experience

MediumAntioch, CAPosted Sep 2014 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process went a little sideways because I walked in expecting a straightforward sit-down, but the interview ended up being a group format.

I applied online and got called within about five days, then I showed up to meet three of us in the room instead of just one manager alone. It was still pretty easy—mostly basic questions about favorite music bands, favorite movies, past job experience, and personal hobbies—plus the usual stuff about fit.

The hardest part wasn’t the content, it was trying to actually get my point across. One other person wouldn’t stop talking and kept cutting me off, which made it tough to feel like I represented myself clearly. I tried to stay upbeat anyway and answer what I could when I had the chance.
