It was a pretty seamless process. The interview process only took a few weeks. You meet with various levels within the Property Management department; Regional Director, AVP, Vice President if it gets to that point. They're Property Management department is pretty extensive in terms of hierarchy.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sterling Group (Detroit, MI) in Apr 2023
Interview
They were easy to interview for and was more of a conversation than any thing else. Have questions for them as well for extra points! Scenario questions as well as normal skill related questions
I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sterling Group (Charlotte, NC) in July 2021
Interview
I was contacted by an outside source and arranged an interview time. I met with the team on that preset time & the overall interview that day went well I thought! We went through everything & all my questions were answered. It seemed like a great fit on both ends to the tune of even the property manager at that time confidently telling me that they’d “be in touch shortly” & thought I was a “great candidate for the roll” I was excited as it was a great fit. After about 3 days post interview I reached out to the outside source that had initiated the interview to check in on my status. I was told they didn’t have an update but will be getting back to me soon. The following week I was called by a new property manager at the same location I interviewed at & same thing- seemed like I was a great fit and they were a great fit for me. After about 2 days post that phone interview I reached back out to new property manager & asked for a status update as this was kind of being dragged on by this point. I was told verbatim “I will reach out to you no later than Monday” Monday and that week came and didn’t hear anything. That was my final reach because I have other offers- but I was pretty excited about this particular one. All in all I was pretty disappointed by the lack of organization and courtesy of ones time. Seems like I was being lead on and maybe it wasn’t intentional it was just an overall unprofessional taste they left with me. After so many “we will be with you shortly’s” it became evident that I was reaching with this one.
