The interview process involved three video calls. After these, there was no follow-up. I reached out via email, but after a reasonable time, I still didn't hear back, despite the significant time investment from both sides (over three hours total).

I got a call the week after I submitted my resume and they set up 5 phone interviews. I talked to the person I'd report to and 6 other employees (HR Generalist, HR Director, Sr Talent Acquisition, Asst Legal Council, etc.) who were located in Madison, Wisconsin and their main office in CT. I sent thank you emails to everyone. After over a week with no word, I emailed my potential manager for a decision...no response. Then I called the recruiter a week later to get an update before I left for a trip...still nothing! It was super unprofessional. I guess they found someone else, but maybe it's for the best since I wouldn't want to work for people who aren't upfront. After 5 interviews, you should get an answer.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process was really fast, I got an offer in about two weeks after just a phone interview and an onsite. I met with different people and teams in the company, including HR. We chatted about their strategy and the brand's future, but what they said wasn't accurate. The interviewers were way too positive about where the brand was going, and it ended up going downhill, trying to make the cheapest bikes for places like Walmart and Target.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Would you be comfortable with the company focusing on mass-market bicycles instead of higher-quality ones typically sold in bike shops?

Behavioral Technical
I had a super fast and responsive interview process. It took about two weeks, and I had three interviews with six people total. Everyone was really nice and told me a lot about Pacific Cycle and the job. The only bummer was that I never got an official notification about not getting the job, even after trying to reach out to HR a bunch. But up until that point, they were really helpful and quick to answer questions during the interviews, so it was a pretty good experience overall.
