First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Tradesy.
Software Engineer
The whole process took ages and the communication was terrible. I always had to chase them to find out what was going on. They'd promise an update by a certain date, and then nothing, so I'd have to follow up. Every single time. They seemed unsure about what they were actually looking for in this role. It also felt like they wanted someone who would be super enthusiastic and beg for the job, even though the role itself wasn't clearly defined and they didn't seem excited about it either. They appeared to be more interested in finding someone who fit their existing mold or "culture" rather than someone who could help expand it. After more than a month of this, and several interviews, I finally got a "unfortunately..." email. What a waste of time. My advice: if they can't communicate well during the hiring process, don't expect it to improve once you're hired.
- Can you describe a past project where you encountered difficulties and explain what those challenges were?
UX Writer
The interview process was great! It started with a recruiter call, followed by a hiring manager interview. Then there was a UX writing review or assignment, and the final round(s) included a panel with the team and a VP. Everyone was really nice. Even though I didn't get the job, the hiring manager was super friendly, and I had a good conversation with him. He gave me excellent feedback on why I wasn't selected and how I could improve. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience from what I saw, and I'd recommend working here. The people are lovely, and I wish them well.
- Could you tell us about a project you've worked on?
IT Support
The job posting lacked clarity on what they were really looking for. They wanted someone who could do both HR onboarding/offboarding tasks and work on servers and everything in between, which is a lot for the salary offered. Based on other reviews, it seems like a typical startup situation where the pay doesn't match the job responsibilities.
- Can you tell me about your background in end-user support?
- What is your experience with the onboarding process?
- Describe your hands-on technical experience.
Merchandising Associate
The interview process was detailed and thorough. Tradesy is very strategic with their interviews, bringing in multiple team members from different departments to ask questions about work ethic, culture fit, determination, thinking process, commitment level, and potential for growth within the company. It was definitely one of the toughest interviews I've been through, but also the most fulfilling.
- How do you decide which tasks to do first and why is that important?
