First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Ripcord.
Software Engineer
The recruiting team was very nice and explained the process very well and answered my questions. I felt comfortable knowing what to expect in the interview. 1 hour initial interview with technical questions/coding assessment that starts with 15 minutes with the VP of engineering explaining Ripcord.
- Tell me about a technical project you're particularly proud of and describe your role in its success.
Finance
I went through 3 rounds of interviews and things were going well before Covid hit and the company paused the process. They reached out to me 4 months later to start it up again, but when discussions were to be scheduled they said they found someone the Board recommended. I liked the company but the process and communication should have been managed much better.
- Can you walk me through your background, highlighting your highs and lows, and what you would change?
Data Entry Specialist
I applied online and got a phone interview pretty quickly. The first call was a phone screen where they asked about my typing speed (WPM), my motivation for applying, and my reasons for leaving my previous job. After that, I had to complete a typing test, an attention to detail test, and a 10-key test that included symbols. Then, I met with the Operations team lead and got a tour of the office. Finally, I had a panel interview with four people at once. They explained that the interview was informal and they wanted to get a sense of my personality and work ethic, seeing if I'd be a good fit and a hard worker.
- Tell us something about yourself, outside of your work experience.
- What makes you a good candidate for this position?
- What are your weaknesses for this role?
Systems Administrator
First, I met with HR, and then a technical recruiter introduced me to the hiring manager and a future co-worker. The phone screen and HR chat were quick. The in-person interview took a week to set up, but it was efficient and to the point. They also showed me around the production facility, which was a cool demo.
- Regarding your experience at a large company versus Ripcord's smaller size, how would you approach managing projects independently?
- Can you elaborate on how your experience with large teams at a big company translates to handling projects solo at a smaller company like Ripcord?
