It was a quick two round interview process that included a job shadow. They asked standard questions during both interviews, which were conducted via zoom in 2021. They also asked why I would be a good fit.

Technical Behavioral
Found the job online and applied. About 2.5 weeks later, the HR generalist called me to set up a phone interview with the hiring manager. The next day, I had the phone interview with the marketing manager. They asked a bunch of questions, and it seemed to go well. The marketing manager gave me her email for any follow-up questions. Three days after that, I emailed the marketing manager some more questions but didn't hear back. A week after the initial interview, I followed up with Alissa the HR generalist and she replied that they hadn't made a decision yet. This whole process took two months, and then I got an email saying the position was filled.

Behavioral Other
The application process was pretty straightforward, and I got scheduled for a few interviews not long after. One interview got pushed back a bit, but it wasn't a major issue. There were several interviews spread out over 3-4 different days, which was good because they didn't make me do any presentations or anything like that. The last interview was on a Friday, and they said I'd hear back the following week. It ended up being over two weeks later, and I still hadn't heard anything. I followed up for an update and got a really short email saying I didn't get the job. Everyone I met was really nice and seemed genuine, but it was a letdown that I had to be the one to chase them for an answer. If people take the time to interview, the least they can do is let them know the final decision.

Technical Behavioral
I had a phone interview with HR, followed by a 2-hour in-person interview session with HR and some engineers. They said I'd hear back in under 11 days, but it took them 45 days to respond, even after I emailed them around day 20. It felt really unprofessional. Honestly, even if they had offered me the job, I wouldn't have taken it because the pay was $5,000-$15,000 less than I'm making now.
