First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Chartboost.
Product Lead
So, this interview process kicked off when Lefan Chi got in touch, and we had this really cool, chill chat about Chartboost and the gig. Lefan was awesome at explaining the job scope and the company vibe, plus answered all my questions! After that first call with Lefan, I chatted with the product team folks and other key people I'd be working with. Scheduling and doing those talks was actually one of the best parts. It never felt like it was dragging, and I totally felt like Lefan and the team had my back. They were straight up about every part of the process, where I stood, and the pay. Those are the kinds of things you often miss or don't get during interviews, and this was a fantastic experience that really showed how much they value potential employees and their time. The interviews themselves were also great, and the questions weren't just for show – they were genuinely trying to see if it was a good fit for both of us, not just a one-way street. When it came to the offer, Lefan called me, and we talked it through openly, with Lefan making sure I was cool with everything. In this job market, Lefan totally nailed it by not just looking for anyone, but really playing the long game to make sure it was a great match for both sides (the company and me), which shows they're invested in their hires' long-term success!

Product Lead
Phenomenal experience, truly the best I've had in ages. The Chartboost team was so communicative, supportive, and the whole process was well-paced. It started with Lefan, the Head of Global Talent, who explained the role, team, and company really well and then asked me questions back. She had such passion and energy that made me want to learn more. Then, Maria, the coordinator, set up a call with Nikhil, the Senior VP of Product, to dive deeper into the role, discussing vision, strategy, and the ecosystem. After that, Lefan checked in to see how I felt, if I had more questions, and outlined what to expect next. Maria then scheduled the subsequent interviews. All the interviewers were respectful, on time, and gave a good sense of what working there would be like. Even though I didn't accept the offer for personal reasons, the interview process was smooth, professional, and so enjoyable that I'd love to work with Lefan and her team again. I highly praise Chartboost's Recruiting Team for this remarkable experience.

Product Manager
The hiring team, their tools, and the overall process were great. It was a standard interview process that included a pre-screen and then further interviews. HR was very upfront and communicative, and they stuck to the schedule they provided. I can't think of anything negative about the experience.
