So the interview process was pretty simple. First, I had a 30-minute phone screening with HR. After that, I went into a panel interview with the upper management of the team, which was about 45 minutes long.

The reply was expedient, positive, and polite. After an initial phone screening about basic requirements like salary expectations, the first interview was set up very quickly. Unlike many companies, S3 actually reviewed my resume in advance and came prepared with impressively targeted questions. The dialog throughout the interview was candid, courteous, and insightful. Next steps were confirmed, and I am still in the midst of the interview process. I have been pleasantly surprised and impressed every step of the way.

Confirmed questions5 questions
  • I chose the interview as "difficult" ONLY because S3 actually took the time to analyze who I am, what I do and came prepared to further investigate how I can bring value to the Company as well as enriching my career goals.
  • Sooo...that's "difficult" in a GOOD WAY.
  • To me, an "easy" interview conveys a disinterested and/or unprepared potential employer.

I spoke with the recruiter on the phone first, then they had me come in for an in-person meeting with the recruiter, the CEO, and some other admin staff. It was all wrapped up in under two weeks from when I first heard from them to when I got the offer. I was a bit worried because of some bad reviews I saw online, but it was actually a great experience. Everyone was super nice and genuinely wanted to know about my career goals and if I'd be a good fit.
