Behavioral Presentation
I went through 3 rounds of interviews. The first two were on Zoom, and the third was in person at the company's Ivy City location in DC, where I met the CEO. Although I didn't get an offer, the process was good overall. The recruiter and CEO were respectful of my time, and I'd definitely recommend Compass Coffee to anyone looking for a job there.

I got an email to set up a Zoom interview and I scheduled it. The Zoom interview was short and I felt pretty good about it. After the interview, the interviewer didn't follow up like they said they would. I followed up by email twice to show I was still interested and ask about next steps, but they ghosted me and never responded.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Could you introduce yourself?
