Behavioral Technical

My interview at Pelago was going well until I spoke with a co-founder. He really dug into my past performance reviews, asking why I wasn't promoted and why I was let go from my last job. Since layoffs are so common right now, especially in health-tech where the company itself had layoffs, his questions felt like he was blaming me for losing my job. He even asked for my performance reviews, which I thought was way too personal and unprofessional. It was a bad experience, and honestly, I don't want to work for someone who acts like that.

Things were going okay until I talked to one of the Co-Founders. He really dug into me about a layoff I had at a prior company, which made me feel super awkward. Layoffs are really hard and nobody should have to go through that again in an interview. I decided to pull out right after we talked.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was great, very thorough, I felt I knew where I was and got feedback throughout. I could ask questions about expectations, growth, culture and strategy. What made it stand out was always knowing where I was in the process and getting feedback. Another great part was speaking with a founder about the company's origins and vision.
