Behavioral Technical Case

So the interview process at Collibra was pretty thorough, meant to see if you're good at the job and also if you'd fit in. It had a few parts. First, I chatted with HR about my past work, why I want this job, and if I vibe with Collibra's whole thing. Then, there was a Sales interview where we talked about how I connect with customers, sell solutions, and manage big accounts. After that, I met the Hiring Manager who gave me the lowdown on what the job entails, the team, and the main goals. They also threw some hypothetical situations at me to see how I'd react. The last bit was a Technical Engineering chat, checking my knowledge of Collibra's stuff, data governance, and how I solve tech problems. Honestly, it was all pretty smooth and clear, felt like they really wanted to find someone who knows their stuff and works well with others.

First, there was a phone screening. Then I connected with Krish, who managed the rest of the hiring process, which went really smoothly. Krish kept me updated throughout and provided feedback. He also made sure to schedule my meetings with the hiring managers promptly because I didn't want the process to drag on. Everyone involved was very professional, and I had a great time. The rest is history, and I got the job! So excited!

Behavioral

Had an initial call with an internal recruiter that lasted 45 minutes. It was really abrupt and challenging, and they were rude about my current company. It honestly didn't make me want to work there at all. They said I'd hear back in 72 hours. I had to email them, and they just said 'oh i tried to call and left a message'. Collibra seems like a C list vendor in the UK, but they acted like a D list vendor. Just a heads up, there are many more receptive data businesses out there.
