Had a 30 min call in English with HR and the manager. They asked about my experience and explained the role. Then a second interview, which was a 15 min role play in German. They told me clearly when I would hear back, which was quick.

I had my first interview, and honestly, it wasn't the most professional experience so far. I got two automated emails: the first one said I didn't get the job, but then a few hours later, I got another automated email saying I got selected for the first interview. The call was with HR, and it felt more like a sales pitch from them about the company and the process, rather than a chance for us to get to know each other. They didn't even give me time to ask questions about the role.

I was contacted by Semrush via LinkedIn for an interview opportunity. The first step was a recruiter screening, which felt pretty standard. They explained things okay, but didn't seem to know much about the specific job or the team. I ended up getting a rejection email saying my experience wasn't a fit, even though I have over 10 years in SaaS and a marketing background, and the role only required 2-4 years of experience.
