I had a 30-minute chat with the recruiter, then a 30-minute call with the hiring manager, followed by four back-to-back 30-minute interviews with team members, and wrapped up with a 1-hour presentation. I saw reviews beforehand and yeah, it really is overkill for the pay, which isn't much more than a cashier at a place like Costco. This is the first time I've felt like leaving a bad review after an interview, it just left a bad taste. Honestly, the process was easier for jobs that paid way more. The only good thing was that the people seemed pretty nice.

Behavioral Presentation

This was the best recruitment process I've ever gone through! I always heard about next steps within 2 days max, everyone was well prepared and natural for each interview - it was clear to me they actually spent time reviewing my information ahead of the interview. There were 3 rounds - recruiter, hiring manager, panel/presentation. It was a relatively painless process!

Applied online using the Box Careers page. Was asked to do a short (20 minute) video interview where I had to record myself answering 6 questions (half written/half Box employee prerecorded question). Then, had an initial phone screen interview with recruiter (20 minutes). Followed by a phone interview with hiring manager (30 minutes). Lastly, a virtual Zoom interview (4-30 minute interviews with 4 different employees including 2 support managers and 2 leads. 1-30 minute demo where I had to present a Box feature to all 4 employees which I interviewed with. Total 2 and half hour virtual interview process)
