I was contacted by a Dow Jones recruiter on LinkedIn about this role. I had a first interview with the hiring manager and it went well. I got positive feedback but then heard nothing back despite reaching out multiple times for a month. It was unprofessional to get my hopes up and then go silent. Recruiters represent the company and should communicate better, even just an update would have been professional.

I had an HR call, and then went through 3 interviews with the senior director and tech leads. Unfortunately, I never heard back after that, which felt like a complete waste of my time and showed a lack of respect for candidates.

The interview process was really smooth. I had a few behavioral questions and some about my previous product experience. The interviewers were super friendly and positive, and they got back to me within a week. I'd definitely recommend the company.
