Had an interview with the recruiter and she was making comments and judging me that I got laid off my past two jobs. Sorry we can't find a great company to stay at for 10 years like you, your highness. She ghosted when I was trying to follow up. Don't interview here if you've left jobs or been laid off because they will make comments and make you feel even worse after your lay off.

Application
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital Group
Interview
I applied online in November then received a phone interview in mid December. I was asked to come into the office for an interview in early January. The interview was supposed to be for an hour but it was cut short to just 30 mins. I was told I would hear back from the following week but when I didn't I followed up and didn't get any feedback. I assumed I did not get it the job but then 3 weeks later, I received the official "you did not get the job but thank you for meeting with us" email. So from November - Feb I was very excited about this job but it did not work out.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic- Why do you want to work here type of questions and "what has been the biggest change in you since starting at your current job"
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital Group (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2023
Interview
Really strange experience- the recruiter reached out (cold call, I didn’t apply) and we spoke a few days later. She never sent the JD or any information about the role, so I found one I assumed was the correct position. When we spoke, she offered no info about the company or the role and jumped into asking me about my background while lightly chastising me for “jumping around” as people at capital group have “longevity”. I left the consulting industry in 2016, so almost 10 years ago. Her “feedback” for the role I had no information about was to focus on consulting because it was “way more exciting” than the roles held since. The roles I held after consulting were way more in line with the job req that was posted, so all I can gather is this company is more interested in name brand of your prior company than the actual work. Really bizarre experience. I asked her to remove me from the process - seems the company is not super interested in innovation and only interested in prestigious name brands.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital Group (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2020
Interview
Very thorough, they know what they are doing and ask good basic questions with in depth follow up questions. You must be prepared and can't fake your way through if you don't have the experience.
