Behavioral Case Presentation

It took about a month to complete the interview process. There were two one-on-one interviews, and then a final interview where I had to present a case study to a group of people. The communication was really fast and I had a good experience overall.

Behavioral Case Technical

I interviewed for the Aliso Viejo office and the whole experience was the worst compared to all the companies I'd interviewed for. The recruiter during the initial screening spent 30 mins talking down and wasn't listening. The hiring manager wasn't any better when I asked about team culture and work-life balance. The whole process took about 6 weeks from the initial screening to the final virtual onsite interview. Afterward, there was no communication and email replies from the recruiter or the hiring manager, they ghosted. With such a terrible candidate experience I would avoid going through the interview process with PlayStation. I can't imagine if they treat candidates like how they will treat you once you're hired.

Behavioral Technical

First, HR reached out and was pretty open about the compensation and benefits. Then, the sourcing coordinator sets up a 30min call with the Hiring Manager. This is followed by an interview with the Hiring Manager. After feedback from the HM, the sourcing coordinator sets up a call with the Data Gov Lead. However, after a month with still no update on the application/process even after multiple follow-up emails, it's frustrating to see that the company no more values the time that one has put in towards the interview. Such patterns must change and the interviewee must definitely be informed about the status!!
