Behavioral Case Presentation
The interview process was lengthy and felt like a repetition of the same themes. From the initial chat with the hiring manager all the way through the case study presentation, the main focus was on how I approach strategic account management. The case study seemed unnecessary because I had already shared detailed examples in earlier discussions. All in all, it was a disappointing experience.

Behavioral Technical
The recruiting process was terrible. They sent a mass rejection email, then took it back. After multiple follow-ups and two interviews with the hiring manager, the recruiter went silent. The company was acquired during the process, which might explain the disorganization, but the recruiter ironically preached about good recruiting practices while doing the opposite. I'd recommend avoiding this company.

Technical Behavioral Presentation Other
I really enjoyed Clever's onsite interview process. It was super varied which made the day fly by. We did a prioritization task where I had to figure out how to reach a goal and what to focus on and when. Then I had a 1 on 1 with the hiring manager to talk about the role in detail. After that, I had a 1 on 1 with senior staff where we did behavioral questions. We also had lunch with people from different teams. A big part was a presentation where I had to talk about a time I solved a customer's problem – this was pretty tough because I didn't have much time to get ready for it beforehand. Lastly, there was a teach and learn segment: I learned about a technical concept for 10 minutes, prepped for 5, and then taught it to someone new.
