      Technical Recruiter Interview

      3 Oct 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Populus Group

      Interview

      Completely unprofessional. Did not send me a job description (when they said that they would). Told me it would only be one person interviewing me (there were two). Asked incredibly personal questions and tried to get me to change my answers to their questions multiple times.

      Looks like you don't have any motivation in your life. Why not?

      Technical Recruiter Interview

      11 May 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      California, MD
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Populus Group (California, MD) in Mar 2026

      Interview

      Speak with recruiter for 20 minutes then if all goes well they schedule a formal interview with a manager. I did not get that far because I did not like their requirements. Recruiter was nice.

      Technical Recruiter Interview

      28 Mar 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Populus Group in Mar 2019

      Interview

      I had 2 phone screens; the first was with an internal recruiter, and the second with a hiring manager. Their questions were fairly standard for screening calls, but red flags about the job/company were raised during my process, including (but not limited to): 1. During my first screen, the interviewer literally said "recruiting sucks!" ... That's really great to hear when interviewing for a recruiting job 2. Both interviewers kept pushing the fact that this was a 100% sales job ... for some that might not be a big deal, but to me it was since I don't agree with the view of people=dollars. 3. During my second screen, I found out there was travel involved ... The job description didn't mention this, and the first interviewer didn't mention this 4. According to the job description, their training program is 3 weeks ... this isn't necessarily true. Based on what I was told, there's only a week of actual job training, and in order to switch over to salary you need to reach certain thresholds. I was told this process takes 3-6months. 5. At the end of my second screen, I was told I would hear feedback by tomorrow. I never heard from them again, whether it was yes or a no - even after I sent a message asking for an update. 6. Without outright saying the words, I was told working weekends isn't out of the norm, and even expected. Ultimately, I had decided after the second screen that I wasn't going to pursue this job any further.
