I (Kate) interviewed here in early Spring, 2019. It was easily one of the worst, most uncomfortable positions I've ever been in. I interviewed initially with the Account Manager and her Direct Manager at the time. Great experience and connection with both of them. I felt that my experience transferred over to the Account Manger position. I had my first interaction with Jared Hummel 1:1 in his office. It was slightly uncomfortable and he was dismissive working on other things while I was speaking. I didn't mind at the time. Ultimately, I was invited back for a second interview in which case I interviewed with Kelli and a gentleman on the Digital Marketing team. Great experience. I was so excited.They suggested I consider a position on their team and think on it. I thought this was great - they saw something in me where I was interviewing for one position, and then being considered for another. How ideal! I then had my second interview with Mr. Hummel. If i could have gotten up and left during this interaction, I would have. I sat through a man with his ego telling me he didn't know why I was interviewing there. He didn't know why I thought I could chose between jobs they were offering. He didn't know why I thought I could see myself at Parqa. It was extremely insulting. I would have never dreamed of sitting through a portion of time where someone thought that was okay to speak to someone they don't know the way he did. Why would you invite me back for a second interview if you thought so poorly of me?Anyway - never again will I consider working for a Marketing / Staffing Firm. I have been in Marketing for a private company for a little over a year now and was promoted 8 months into it.
