Mews Interview Questions
& Process

I had a really good time interviewing at Mews. The whole process felt organized and clear from the beginning to the end, and everyone was really nice about it. Big thanks to Stephanie, Craig, and Jane! They were all super kind, professional, and helpful throughout. I felt at ease in all the chats, got clear info, and really appreciated the honest, helpful feedback. Even though I didn't get the job, it just made me like Mews even more. They seem to have great values, high standards, and genuinely awesome people. The interviews were really thought-provoking and focused on real results, not just random answers. Thanks again for a great experience as a candidate. I'd totally recommend Mews to anyone thinking of applying. Thanks Agustin

HR Chat Technical Exercise (Real scenario, no bullshit) Exercise Defense Culture/Hiring Manager Offer (In the end I said no but not because I didn't want to but because the timing wasn't right for me) The process was quite straightforward, although a bit long (exercise + defense makes you have to spend a lot of energy on the process) Both in the technical chat and in the defense they touched on "REAL" topics and you could tell they knew and wanted to take care of the company's knowledge. I did well but besides that, I learned. They made some corrections in the exercise that, although they were nitpicking, helped me improve some ways I had of aborting certain parts of the logic.

So, I think the interview process here was honestly one of the best I've experienced. The communication was spot on, never left me guessing what was next, and their emphasis on diversity and inclusion really resonated with me. The whole thing kicked off with me sending in my CV. Then there was an initial 30-minute screening call with a recruiter. We chatted about my background, why I was interested in Mews, and just generally if I fit the role. The HR person was really nice and made me feel super comfortable. After that, I had a short interview with the hiring manager. We covered similar ground regarding background and motivation, but they also threw in some semi-technical questions, like how I handle messy data and how I'd explain technical stuff to people who aren't technical. Next up was a take-home assignment, which was a really well-designed task that tested my data analysis skills. I had to submit it two days before the presentation round so they could look it over beforehand. The presentation round itself was probably the toughest part. I had to present my take-home analysis, give some recommendations, and then answer a bunch of follow-up questions. They also hit me with a fair amount of technical questions about my approach to certain tasks and my experience with different technologies. The final step was a chat with the Chief People Officer to check for cultural fit within the People's Team and Mews overall. And then, I got the offer!

I applied for a Business Development Representative job in the UK because I heard Mews has a great culture. I sent my CV and cover letter on Oct 25th. A week later, I had to submit a 1-minute video within 3 days, which I did. Another week went by and I was scheduled for a Teams interview with the BDR lead. But the day before, I got an email saying they don't sponsor visas and I couldn't proceed. I told them I have a graduate visa that lets me work in the UK for 2 years without sponsorship, but they didn't reply until I followed up. They then confirmed their decision briefly. I sent another email giving feedback and saying how I felt about the poor communication, but still no reply. I get that policies differ, but cancelling my application so late without clear communication felt unprofessional. I'd spent time preparing for the interview and had high hopes because of Mews' good reputation. This lack of transparency didn't match the 'people-first' culture they're known for.
