First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Golden Hippo.
Video Editor
I had a screening call over the phone, then a video interview with the manager and a team member. I thought it went really well and I was super qualified, but I didn't get moved on, for some reason. They said it would take 1-2 days to hear back, but it took 2 weeks and I had to email them twice to get a response, and it was a no.
- Could you describe your video editing workflow?
Video Editor
I had a 30 minute phone interview with a recruiter to see if I would be a good fit for the role. The following 2 weeks I had 2 virtual interviews with managers from the video team. The interviews went well but they ultimately decided not to move forward with me because I live too far from their office. I was disappointed because the job was listed as remote and they seem to advertise that they support remote work when that is not really the case anymore. It looks like the company is moving away from remote work and looking to hire hybrid employees. It’s misleading in the job post so be aware of this when applying!
- What video editing software are you proficient in?
- What drives you?
Video Editor
I heard back from the recruiter via email about coming in for an interview. When I got there, the recruiter who had emailed me met me and then introduced me to the two supervisors in the department I was interested in. The interview itself was led by both supervisors.
- The interviewers asked some typical interview questions. They had a very relaxed demeanor, which made the experience extremely comfortable.
