Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Phenom.
Customer Success Manager
I got invited for a first phone screen with Phenom. I did some research on the company and their work with talent experience and hiring tech, and I got really excited about the chance and the interview process. The person who did the screen was nice and professional, but the chat felt super fast. They talked really quickly, making it feel a bit rushed and like we had a ton to get through in not much time. What really caught me off guard was the lack of any follow-up after the screen. Since Phenom is all about candidate experience and automated hiring, I figured I'd at least get some kind of confirmation, update, or rejection. I've interviewed with other companies that use Phenom's tech and had structured, automated follow-ups, so this was especially surprising. As a company that wants to make the hiring experience better for its clients, I thought they'd show that same consistency in their own hiring.

Customer Success Manager
It was a video call, about 30 minutes long. The recruiter was really prepared and I enjoyed the interview with them. They explained the different steps and what they expected from me. I really felt like I did well on the interview. However, the hiring manager decided not to move forward with me, so the process ended there. I asked for more information and feedback, but got a standard reply.
- Can you tell me about your experience?
- What are your salary expectations?
Customer Success Manager
the process was easy and straightforward, usually taking about two weeks for a decision. Sometimes interviewers get technical or ask domain-specific questions, even for non-engineering roles, so expect more than just soft skills. They use scorecards and a question library to make sure everyone is evaluated the same way.
