The interviewer wasn't super engaged during our call. I was hoping we'd get to chat more about the role and the department. The recruiter, however, was really nice and professional. She explained everything clearly, like the interview steps, the job itself, and the pay. She also got back to me quickly.

I applied online and then a recruiter from Samsara emailed me for a phone screen. It was a 30 minute phone screen to talk about my experience. They said I'd hear back in a day, but I didn't get a reply for over a week, and then they just said no thanks. Scheduling and communication were kind of difficult with Samsara.

It was a great experience, the people were nice, but they asked me to do a role play. The interview process involved meeting with peers, leadership, and cross-functional colleagues. The hiring process took a long time, over 5 months.
