The Hiring Manager reached out to me. We had a really good chat that lasted about an hour. I followed up to ask about what's next, and they let me know they decided to move forward with other candidates because I didn't quite fit their business needs.

Behavioral Presentation

I applied after getting a referral. A recruiter from HR reached out and we had a phone call interview. Then, I had an interview with the hiring manager over a video call. After that, I was invited for a virtual interview that included a 45-minute presentation and about 7 or 8 one-on-one meetings. The HR recruiter didn't participate in this part. Right after the interview, the HR recruiter emailed me for feedback. They sent me a rejection email a week later, as they said they would. The email was pretty generic and didn't give a specific reason for the rejection. I didn't get any response when I asked for feedback.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process involved a recruiter call, a meeting with the director, an interview with a scientist from the team, a 25-minute presentation, and then a 3-hour panel interview with about 10 people. It's a very long process that's tough to fit in with other interviews and your current job. What frustrated me was the lack of consideration for the time and effort required for an RA role. If you don't get the job, you'll get a generic rejection email and no further contact or feedback, despite all the work you put in. Keep this in mind before applying.

Behavioral Presentation Technical

I was contacted by a recruiter for the Sr. PM role at Mammoth. My interview process started with an initial chat with HR and the Hiring Manager. After that, I was asked to prep a 30-minute presentation about myself and my work for the team. The Hiring Manager was really helpful and set up another call to give me more project details, even while they were on vacation. Then I gave my presentation to the team and had one-on-one chats with each person. They asked really relevant questions and made me feel totally at ease. HR replied quickly to my follow-ups, and the recruiter was amazing throughout the whole thing, keeping me updated on my status. I didn't get the job, but the Hiring Manager called to give me feedback on my interview. I was really impressed that they took the time to do that. Great job, Mammoth Team!
