Presentation Other

The interview process was okay and the people I met were nice. The last step was a role play/presentation that was done really badly. They framed it as a presentation, so I spent time preparing. On the day, there was an extra person in the call for the role play, but it wasn't clear and felt like they were trying to trick me. The worst part is I never heard back after the final stage, even after following up. It felt disrespectful to treat candidates like that. You should do better.

It was pretty standard, I first chatted with the recruiter, then the CS manager, and then the account team! Very standard and easy going. No presentation was involved but they did ask "Give us an example when" or "How would you do this".

Behavioral Presentation

I interviewed for a role and went through 2-3 phone screens, a half-day in-person, and another video interview. They chose someone else, which was fine. The hiring manager then asked me to interview for a different role that she thought I was a better fit for. I went through the whole process again: another phone interview, another half-day onsite, and another video interview. The recruiter then sent an automated email saying I didn't get the job. I asked the hiring manager for a quick chat about constructive criticism, but she said she didn't have time. So, after 10+ interviews across two roles, two onsites, automated rejection emails after final interviews, and no feedback, it's clear this company doesn't value candidates. Don't waste your time; recruiting and customer success don't care about you.
