I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CBRE (Newport Beach, CA)
Interview
Resume and cover letter were passed along through a contact. Within a week there was a phone screening call. Two people from the analyst team talked to me for about 20 minutes to get an idea how well I'd for the position. At the end of the call they scheduled an in person interview.
About a week later the team supervisor interviewed me. She asked quite a few questions and then invited her team of 6 in to interview me and give me an idea for what the job was like. After that discussion I took a two hour skills assessment. I didn't think it was difficult but I was later informed that I got one of the highest scores they've had on years.
Following that test I was invited back for a second interview, speaking with everybody I had spoken to before plus a one on one interview with a former member of the team who had since been promoted.
I later heard from a contact within the company that the team and supervisor liked me but they needed somebody pretty immediately and I was still about two months from getting my degree.
Thank you for your feedback. Please stay in touch with your interviewers for future opportunities. We sincerely appreciate your continued interest in CBRE!
I applied online. I interviewed at CBRE (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2015
Interview
Applied online. No response at all from company. Will update after follow up. I believe my salary floor may have been too high.
The application did not ask any questions. It took everything from the resume you upload. I'm not sure if they look at the resume itself. No space on the online app to describe collegiate volunteer experiences - clubs, organizations, etc.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CBRE
Interview
The recruiter contacted me via email as a follow up for an application I placed directly online. After about a 15 minute interview she said that she would pass my resume on to the hiring manager. Then she disappeared. Never responded to my email follow ups. Evenutally I was able to get in contact with her after about a three week to month time period to find out that they gave someone an offer already. When I initially read the reviews for CBRE, I was hoping that the interview reviews were wrong..but they are 100% right. The recruiters never follow up with you and while you are constantly sitting and waiting while monitoring your emails and voice mails..for nothing.
