Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at HiBob.
Account Executive
A recruiter helped get me in. I then spoke with HR, the Hiring Manager, and the CRO. The whole thing took about a month. It was pretty basic, mostly just talking about my past experience. The last interview involved a role-play where I had to show how I'd demo the product. This was a bit challenging since I hadn't seen the product before, so I approached it from my background in the HCM field.
- Tell me about how you handle objections.
- Describe a challenging situation you encountered and how you used unconventional thinking to resolve it.
- Given no prior exposure to the product, how would you approach a product demonstration?
Account Executive
My interview experience with HiBob was surprisingly poor, especially since their product automates candidate communication. The recruiter and hiring manager initially made a good impression. However, I waited almost two weeks for an update, even though they said I'd hear back in a few days. I had to follow up three times before getting an automated rejection message. I made it to the final stage, which involved a lot of prep work, learning about the company, and a role play. I asked for feedback, as I believe candidates deserve it after reaching the last round. Since my earlier messages were ignored, I don't expect a response. I'm sharing this because timely updates and feedback are crucial for candidates, which is ironic given HiBob's product.
- What are your reasons for wanting to work at HiBob?
- Can you walk me through your sales process?
Account Executive
The interview process started with a Zoom call scheduled by a recruiter in Israel. After I provided my availability, there was a significant delay in response, prompting me to follow up after a week. They then replied after another 5 days and set up the first stage interview for the next day. This initial interview went fine, and the recruiter then arranged a second stage interview with the hiring manager for later that week. However, when I showed up for the second stage interview via Zoom, the hiring manager did not appear. I waited on the call for 25 minutes without them showing up. I emailed the recruiter during this time but never got a response. This whole experience felt very disorganized and unprofessional, showing a lack of respect for my time.
