It was the standard process with 3 rounds total. I spoke with different people on the team. The last round was with the head of the department, who was super nice and made me feel comfortable. The team seemed really enthusiastic about the role overall.

I submitted an application online. The entire process spanned 8 weeks and involved 5 interviews with different managers. The HR and managers were unprofessional and arrogant, with one manager acting as 'bad cop'. HR sometimes takes weeks to schedule an interview and then never follows up. It was the worst experience with HR and managers I've ever had.

It was an easy three step process, but I was very disappointed to be ghosted. First, I spoke with the VP of Success for 30 minutes. Then, I met with the manager of the onboarding team for 1 hour. Lastly, I interviewed with two members of the team for 45 minutes. After the interview with the team members, I didn't feel like I was a good fit and expected a rejection, but I received nothing. This is a huge red flag and a horrible candidate experience. I've never gone through three rounds of interviews and not received a response about my application status. It takes minutes to send an email. Get it together.

I applied in February and heard back in April after I reached out to some employees on LinkedIn. They asked typical interview questions about attention to detail and how I handle strife with a colleague, etc. After finding out the starting salary was 40K, I wasn't really interested in moving forward, but the hiring manager was really nice and I'm glad I spoke with them to find out more.
