Avoid like the plague. No benefits. You are contracted under 1099 and have to manage all your taxes. They want you to pay 500 dollars for on board training. They fail to mention this until the end of the interview, since they know people will avoid this company. Save your time and avoid the interview. read more

I found a posting on Indeed and applied. Only about 10 minutes later, HR Manager Caroline Dellinger emailed me and asked if I could interview the next day. When I arrived, I had to wait for a questionable and old elevator because there are no stairs available and it took me to their office on the second floor. I walked up to the reception desk, where the receptionist was starring at her monitor. She didn't look up at me or greet me. She just sat there and after about five seconds, asked if she could help me - still, starring at her monitor. She never looked up the whole time. I told her who I was and whom I was there to see; she said she would let her know I was there and told me to have a seat. Several minutes later, a woman came and got me. She didn't greet me and never introduced herself. I don't know if she was Dellinger, but she probably wasn't, because Dellinger had seen my resume. It was very evident from the beginning that this woman had never seen my resume and she didn't know a lot about the job. She brought up the job description and went over it with me, but never asked me about my prior experience or how I applied my skills. She asked no questions at all to determine how qualified I am for the position. It made me think I was pawned off on an underling who had not trained to conduct interviews and was not prepared - as though she was tasked with interviewing me at the last minute. It was a negative experience for me and offended me that they put such little effort into it. read more

CAUTION! DO NOT INTERVIEW HERE! PLEASE READ!!! IT'LL SAVE YOU TIME, MONEY, AND HUMILIATION! I went to Access 2 Interpreters for an interview after finding a help wanted ad on Craigslist.First of all, the building is hard to find! Putting it in the GPS took me to German Village. I called the office to get better directions and all they could say was it was on the corner of Mound and 3rd.The receptionist was the only nice person I talked to during my whole visit! When I finally got to the building they were located at, there was no sign saying who or really what building they were at. Their only "sign" they have is a little label located on a door buzzer that doesn't have a purpose. When I reached the third floor, I walked in to find an empty front desk and conference room. I had to walk into their desk area to get help. Again the receptionist was the only one who greeted me. The other girls never looked up and acted like I wasn't there. I couldn't hold that against them though cause they looked extremely stressed out! Once I am taken back to Yana Schottenstein office, she does not stand up to greet me. She tells me to sit and we get started with the interview. She asks the standard questions of how you heard about us and what am I looking for in a new job. We then move onto my resume. She said "Your resume seems to give me your life story." I didn't know that a one page resume with my contact information, previous job information, and education was "my life story" but for Yana it seemed to be too much! Yana notices that I have a Bachelor in Art and she proceeds to tell me that my degree is useless. She said "My daughter got an Art History degree and I told her to go get a real job, so she is a lawyer now and makes money. She said that she does not understand why I got an Art degree when I need to make money to survive. I told her that with my art degree, there were some options like teaching or advertising that I could eventually explore. Without finishing, Yana cuts me off and says "If you are looking to do advertising here, you are wasting your time and maybe this job is not for you." Shock by this sudden response, especially considering I had only been there 10 minutes, I said that I understood that the position I was interviewing for was not an advertising job but I was just giving examples of what positions I could do with my art degree, if I decided to go down that road. She then asked me to tell her why I was looking for a new job. I told her that I was looking to grow with a company and have not had that opportunity yet. She said "I see that you are in a supervisor role right now, to me it looks like you don't want to grow because you are running away from your current job." Once again Yana's response shocked me! I tried to explain why I was looking for a new job and she just kept repeating that I was running away. Done with that subject, Yana moved on and asked if I had any questions. I said that I had a difficult time finding her website because I did not know that the name used the number 2 instead of to. The co-manager, did state that it is difficult and confusing to find. (The name of the company was never given on craigslist and never specified over the phone.) So I asked her just a little bit of information about the company's history and she said "Well since you didn't do your homework, I'll tell you." Another shocking response! I asked her what type of interpreters she used, possibly ASL. She said "Yes. Do you know someone?" I said my best friend is an interpreter and Yana said "Please give her our information, we could use her. Do you know anyone else we can give a job to?" So from that professional response, I knew I wasn't getting the job and that was fine by me! She finally wrapped up the interview by telling me that there were no benefits and only a weeks vacation, that I could work a week at my current job and train from 3pm-11pm in her office (she didn't ask, she instructed I would do that). Finally, she asked where I lived. I said 20 minutes away from her office and she said "No, no, no. That is too far!" And with that finally response the interview was over. After putting on my coat, I went over to her desk to shake her hand and thank her for her time. She did not get up from her chair or extend her hand, instead she said "No we do not shake hands in this office, we fist bump." So we fist bumped and I was gone. read more
