Candidate-reported interview process

The whole process was great – they were fast, efficient, I met a good mix of people, covered a lot of ground, and moved quickly to an offer. I liked meeting different stakeholders, like a business leader for the area I would have supported.

The interview process was great, even though I didn't get the job. As a recruiter myself, I was really impressed. The recruiting team (Jason and Cal) were super fast, upfront, friendly, and informative. I made it to the mid-stages, and the panel was also fantastic: approachable, knowledgeable about their areas, punctual, and they set an agenda for our talks.

This was a really positive interview experience. It started with a 30-minute call with the Recruiter, who was professional, friendly, and knew their stuff. Then, I spoke with the Hiring Manager for another 30 minutes. After that, I had a virtual onsite interview where I met with several team members, including managers and people from other departments. Everyone was respectful, professional, and really represented the company's brand and values well. They were efficient and stuck to their timelines. Even though I didn't get the job, I'm glad I went through such a smooth process and met such a high-performing team!
