PTC Interview Questions
& Process

I interviewed twice with PTC and unfortunately both experiences were disappointing. In both cases, I only met with recruiters and never had the opportunity to speak with the hiring manager. The questions asked often felt unrelated to the actual job responsibilities, and at times the tone and reactions during the interview felt discouraging and overly critical. Shortly after, I received a generic rejection email stating they were not moving forward. The process felt impersonal and misaligned with the role itself. I would strongly recommend a more streamlined approach where qualified candidates can connect directly with hiring managers, and where recruiter screenings are more structured, role-focused, and professional.

I went through an interview process for a BDR role in Barcelona and it was one of the most chaotic and unprofessional experiences I’ve had. The process was very slow and poorly coordinated. I was asked to prepare a prospecting exercise and a full presentation, but when I joined the interview with the manager, he had never heard about this exercise. They are clearly not aligned internally. After investing significant time preparing and completing the interviews, communication completely stopped. Despite follow-ups, I was eventually ghosted with no final feedback or decision.

The interview process spanned three days. It began with a quick chat to see if you'd be a good cultural fit for the company. Then there was a technical round where they asked about the main programming language you'd be using. Finally, there was a direct interview with the manager, which also included coding assignments and intelligence questions.

I applied for the Business System Analyst – Salesforce role at PTC on August 21st. The first interview was on September 1st. After that, communication was unclear. The job was reposted on LinkedIn twice while I was waiting for feedback. I followed up with HR the second week after my interview and was told interviews were still ongoing. I followed up again in the third week, and HR said they would update me the following week, but I never heard back. The whole process felt really unprofessional. Candidates should get timely communication and closure, not be left without updates. This kind of ghosting is a bad experience and leaves a negative impression of the company's hiring.
