      Funding Specialist Interview

      2 Nov 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Long Island City, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Empower Group (Long Island City, NY)

      Interview

      I was able to get an interview fair quickly. Nice office and location, I got interviewed by two people 1 on 1. I felt that interview went OK, they seemed turned off about my prior experience. They're basically looking for a body in a chair who hit the phone 300+ calls a day. One guy mentioned during the interview that "this is a monkey's job".

      Dear Interviewer, Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the interview process. I’d like to provide some context for the comment made during your interview. Our team strives to be transparent with candidates about the nature of the role, particularly in the initial stages. The work can be repetitive, as it involves a high volume of calls to build familiarity with our processes and industry. We view this as a critical foundation for professional growth within our organization. While the term "monkey work" was used to convey this repetitiveness, we emphasize that it is a necessary step toward mastering our systems and advancing in the role. We value your perspective and appreciate your time and interest in our company.
