Technical Behavioral

The interview process involved three phone screenings and then an onsite interview. The phone interviews went well, but the onsite interview was very rushed by the hiring manager. He cut the interviews short, and I was out in 45 minutes instead of the expected 3-4 hours. I was supposed to have lunch with him, but it was ordered and sitting at reception while he was rushing me out. If they decided not to proceed before the final interview, they should have just called to cancel. I would never treat someone like that, regardless of what they might have done. The whole experience lacked class. I've had interviews where I didn't get the job but still had a good experience. I recommend not wasting your time with this company. Ultimately, I'm glad it happened this way because it showed me this isn't a company I'd want to work for.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process was a bit drawn out. It kicked off with a few conversations with the hiring manager. We talked about my past work, what I can do, the job, and also dug into the company, the market, and what they offer product-wise. After that, I had a bunch of in-person meetings with everyone on the team, plus some higher-ups. These meetings spanned three weeks, which is why it took so long. Everyone I met was cool and asked things directly. I was really impressed with how everyone acted, their enthusiasm, and their general vibe throughout.

The interview process moved really fast. After they saw my resume, I got a recruiter call the same day and a technical phone screen the very next day. They told me during the call about the onsite interview happening the next week. It felt like they were as excited about the job as I was! The onsite had 4 technical interviews and 1 managerial one, all back-to-back from 1 pm to 6 pm. They let me know the results the day after. The recruiter went over the offer and compensation details clearly. Honestly, the whole process was an A+.

Behavioral Technical

I applied by sending my resume to a connection I had on LinkedIn. My resume was then passed to the hiring manager, and shortly after, I got a call from the recruiter. Following the initial phone screen, a call was scheduled with the hiring manager for a few days later. I spoke with the hiring manager, and it seemed to go well. About a week later, I was invited for face-to-face interviews. I went in and interviewed with about 5-6 people, each for 30 minutes. I felt things went very well and sent follow-up thank you emails to everyone I spoke with. I was told they had a few more people to interview, and then they would have a round table meeting to discuss candidates and make a decision in a few days. After a few days, I followed up with the recruiter about the results of the round table meeting. He mentioned it was pushed to Friday. So, a week after that Friday, I followed up with the recruiter again, and I received absolutely no response. It's now been several weeks, and I've never heard anything from them. Very unprofessional. They should at least provide an outcome, even if I didn't get the job.
