I had an initial screening call for the CSM role. The interviewer was talking super fast, like she was reading a script and just wanted to get it over with. The interview didn't get very far because she told me the job pays $40K a year, with a small yearly bonus. I wasn't interested because that's way below market rate for a CSM.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
It was a pretty straightforward three-round interview process plus a job shadow. They also make you do this super long quiz before you even apply which feels like a waste of time. After they say they want to hire you, you're stuck in their 'intent to hire' pipeline for months before you actually get the job.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process had three rounds of interviews, followed by a job shadowing opportunity, after which I would be added to the hiring pipeline. I was added to the hiring pipeline at the beginning of May. In June, they contacted me to confirm my interest. In July, I was informed that final decisions would be made by the end of that week. It is now almost the end of August, and they have completely ghosted me, which feels like a waste of my time. I would not recommend investing any time, energy, or effort into interviewing with this company. Very rude and disrespectful.

So I applied to TBS before and didn't get the job cause they already hired someone. But then a few months later, I saw they were hiring again and I went for it! The whole interview thing was a phone call with corporate and I had to send in some sample tweets.
