You’re probably wondering what you can expect from Tree.com during the Hiring Process. Here’s an overview.
So you’ve read all about the amazing things that Tree.com has to offer and you’re really excited about landing an opportunity here. You’ve found the PERFECT position and you’ve submitted an application. Now what?
We have different processes for different positions within the company. They all start with one of our dedicated Recruiters reviewing resumes for potential candidates. If they find someone who looks like a fit for the position in terms of skill set, areas of interest, prior work experience etc., you could score a 15-45 minute phone conversation so that we can dig deeper into your experience and expectations.
Like we mentioned, the process can vary from position to position – let’s face it, Developers and Online Marketers have different approaches!
Our interview processes are rather lengthy, but it’s all part of the plan. We need dedicated professionals who are willing to start something and see it through to the end. You may have to handle the stress of panel interviews and navigate difficult behavioral interview questions. We may ask you to research a topic and conduct a presentation during one of your interviews; likewise homework, pop quizzes and/or writing samples could be used for evaluation purposes. Interpersonal communication skills and interaction with our teammates will also weigh very heavily into our decision making.
At the end of it all, it’s the Hiring Manager that makes the decision to extend the offer, but it’s the Recruiter that you will hear from. They will call you to present the good news and talk through the specifics of the job, the offer, the start date and the next steps. This is when we start the detailed background process and get your offer documents out to you.
The fun and excitement come with the potential opportunity at the end of it all and you find a career with a company that you LOVE!
Now, if you are specifically applying for the Mortgage Banker position, you will find that we have a unique, structured hiring process in place. Be prepared to think outside the box and hang on for the ride. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither was our sales floor!
It’s a good 30-45 minute phone conversation about your skills and experience as well as A LOT of details about the position. No secrets here! You will learn more than you ever thought you wanted know about the Mortgage Banker position with LendingTree Loans . . . and then some. Have a piece of paper and a pen handy when they call!
How do you communicate with people via email? How do you sound over the phone? We want samples! Email scenarios and voicemail recordings are part of our interview process and we share them with the managers. Here’s your chance - make it lively and riveting!
Time to put your best foot forward in a face to face interview with the Recruiter! Even though we have a casual work environment, “putting your best foot forward” means dressing professionally for your interviews. Dress up and be prepared to answer some unique and specific questions.
Yes, it’s a panel interview, but don’t sweat it. It will be with your Recruiter (who has worked with you to get this far) and the Hiring Manager. The panel interview is very similar to the interview with the recruiter; same format, different questions. Ultimately, the Hiring Manager will make the offer decision. Bring your resume and be prepared to ask some great questions - just remember that throughout the interview process, you are interviewing us as much as we are interviewing you. You want to make sure this is the right fit for you, asking questions will help you make an informed decision about your career!
