The interview process was a two-stage interview with a short task. It was straightforward and enjoyable overall. I met with the UK head of talent and the director of HR. An offer came very quickly after the second stage interview.

Behavioral Technical

Went through four rounds till the finals. There was an HR manager interview, then an interview with 2 team members, and finally a stakeholder interview with the technical hiring manager. All the interviews were positive, with a good vibe and friendly atmosphere. It was a positive experience until the feedback part. In the end, I got a standard rejection email with no specific feedback. I emailed them to ask for their observations and if there was anything I could have done better. I never got a reply.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process was thorough and professional. It began with a phone screening, followed by an in-person interview with two HR employees. I was surprised that after these two interviews, there was no follow-up or feedback provided on why I wasn't selected. This lack of communication was unprofessional and a significant oversight, especially given the positive first impressions.
