A word about references:

If you're selected for an interview, you'll receive an email from Skill Survey asking for references who can answer questions about your past work experiences and behaviors. Each reference or former colleague you provide will be asked to complete a short survey on your behalf. These in-depth reference checks are required and help us better predict if a candidate is a great fit for the job and our company.

Getting ready for an interview when things were “normal” was stressful enough. What do I wear? Where will I park? What questions will they ask? Adding a global pandemic and video interview to the mix adds a whole other layer of anxiety to an already nerve-wracking situation. We get it, and we’re right there with you.

Our Talent Acquisition team interviews countless candidates each week. They've seen it all – the good, the bad, and the downright, “what were you thinking?” I sat down with one of our recruiters to get the scoop on what you can do to be your best when you interview with us.
