Behavioral Technical Case Presentation

The interview process was terrible and very disrespectful from HR. CHAI should be embarrassed. There were 4 interview rounds: HR screening, a technical case study, a technical interview with the manager, and an interview with the director. After that, they contacted my current manager (who didn't even know I was applying) behind my back for references. Then, they just ghosted me. The only good thing was realizing I would never want to work for a company that treats people so poorly.

Behavioral Technical

The hiring journey had 5 parts: an initial HR chat, a test, and then three separate chats with different people on the team. I got through 4 of them, but they never got back to me for the final interview. The three chats I did each lasted about an hour, and the test took way longer than the 3 hours they said it would (and it was unpaid). Honestly, the whole thing felt like it dragged on too much, and it would have been better if they'd just done one panel interview with everyone involved.

Technical Behavioral

The interview process was quite slow, involving a fairly extensive technical assignment. After three rounds, I didn't hear back from them, even after following up. It left a bad impression, although I think the teams themselves are nice. The recruitment team really needs improvement.

The whole hiring thing took about 3 months and had 3 main parts: first, a quick check, then a big case study to do, and finally, a chat with the boss. It was all organized well and the people interviewing were really professional, so it was a good and informative experience.
