I applied online. I interviewed at Othership (Toronto, ON) in Dec 2024
Interview
Easy, simple questions.
The only problem is that I was rejected after the training shift, which felt odd. After giving my feedback on the hiring, and some time, I was hired!
I first applied for the receptionist position, interviewed for that - then was invited to reapply for path 1 guide, which is invite only.
I was offered the opportunity to audition for path 2 early, which is teaching classes because they saw “something special in me”. Learning that script took upwards of a week and feels a little exploitative in retrospect. The whole process was a lot of work and they want to know a lot about you personally, which can make this hurt a little more if you are rejected in the end.
Maintain professional boundaries and know that your vulnerability can be used against you. This is a transaction, a job and a business on their end. It can feel personal and like they’re leading you on, don’t think for a moment that you’ve got the role. You’ll be blindsided - a lot of performative energy in retrospect. It was my first time being exposed to this, just be aware.
If you teach classes expect to make next to nothing extra off them, the bonus was nothing to write home about. Also expect 2 months of unpaid online training before you begin, and when you do,
to be scheduled 8-10 hrs a week.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Describe a time you were offered feedback and how you handled it.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Othership (New York, NY) in Aug 2024
Interview
It was drawn out and seemed unprofessional. There was little communication and not even confirmation on receiving application, assignments, or any emails in general. I'm actually wondering if the position was being used to get more clientele, not emplolyees.
