I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CBRE (Boston, MA) in May 2014
Interview
They were nice and curious, walking through my resume and any questions I had. I met with two partners and with some of the team members. HR walked me through the final steps when I came in to accept the position. Meghan was very pleasant. When I accepted, I was told the salary. There was no negotiation to be done. It was a good salary and the bonuses were phenomenal, as well.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CBRE
Interview
Had a great screening conversation with the hiring manager. The conversation was great, and I could tell that he enjoyed me asking a lot of questions. Followed up by email immediately following the interview, and went three weeks without hearing from him. After sending another follow up email he let me know they went with someone else. Wish the communication had been better.
