Behavioral Presentation
My interview experience was great. I spoke with the Director of First Impressions, the President, and the CEO. The process included essay questions about company issues for this role. This helped filter candidates and get their perspectives. Everyone I met represented the company well. I had two in-person interviews after a phone call. There were some delays in updates, partly due to vacations. Improving communication timeliness would be good, but I understand being deliberate in hiring takes time.

Behavioral Presentation
I had several phone calls with senior management. The CRO was the only one who seemed human and approachable. Others mostly talked about themselves or their differing visions, or asked standard interview questions. I thought the team would be great because the CRO seemed like a good leader. However, I was then asked to put together a difficult presentation with minimal guidance. Since I was already working full-time, I spent my evenings on this presentation, which made me dislike Umbel. By the time I presented, I had already decided against working there due to the one-sided process. I understand they make the process cumbersome to filter out less committed candidates. Overall, it was not a good experience and I wouldn't recommend it unless you're very eager to join or have no other options.
