The whole process was super easy, which was great. Right after applying online, I got an email confirming they got my application. Then, I got another email to schedule a 30-minute chat with the recruiter, and it even included the company values, which was a first for me. They kept up this transparent approach throughout. When they said they'd get back to me within a week, they did. Applying and interviewing can have so many unknowns, but I really felt like Pluralsight made the process as clear and straightforward as possible.

Interviewing with Pluralsight was a really positive experience. They focus a lot and truly care about their values and mission -- and the entire experience showed me that they take those values to heart. I had one phone interview with a recruiter who was so easy to talk with and clearly excited about the values and mission and finding people who would fit well. I was invited to an on-site interview with 5 other candidates, they said 5/6 would be moving forward...pretty great odds, so that alleviated the pressure a bit. We had a short introduction, then broke off into 3 rounds of interviews with different PM's, product designers, and principal designers. All interviewers were genuine and wanted to have a conversation, not just drilling me. We ended with a fun lunch to chat and get to know each other. I heard back 2 days later that I got the internship.

Behavioral Presentation

The process kicked off with a 30-minute recruiter chat to go over your background and interest in Pluralsight. Next, there was a video call with two product designers from Utah. This was to dive deeper into your experience and for you to showcase some of your work and explain your process. It felt like one interviewer was really engaged, while the other seemed a bit checked out and didn't add much to the discussion.
