Behavioral Presentation
It was a really positive experience with genuine people that sought to understand and learn, not put me under a microscope. It felt like a true exchange and was detailed but also conversational. Great experience. The flow was: VP of Success Screen, HR Screen, Cross-Functional Loop (Product, Sales & HRBP), Presentation Round, Hiring Manager Sync, and CCO Sync.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
They put you through a gauntlet of interviews with a final project. At the end of a process that took nearly 3 months I was left exhausted. Forter seems very unprofessional with a very clear lack of any kind of empathy.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
So, the whole interview process spanned about two months and involved five distinct stages. It kicked off with the Hiring Manager, then moved on to the Country Manager, followed by HR, and then the Head of CSM. The final stage was a presentation. Mostly, the questions were behavioral, but since I come from the payment industry, they also dove into topics like payment performance and 3Ds, which are super relevant to what Forter does. The presentation round had not just the hiring manager, but also some CSMs and engineers I'd be working with. Their questions leaned a bit technical, likely because of my background, but honestly, they were all really friendly and professional throughout.
