Technical Behavioral
I had one interview with the team lead and also spoke with HR. The interview went well and the team lead was nice and gave positive feedback. But then I heard nothing. After two weeks I followed up with HR and she told me to wait one more day for their decision. Still, I didn't hear back and got ghosted, which really shows their professionalism. They couldn't even be bothered to send a rejection email. Sheer lack of professionalism.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
The hiring process included four interviews and one phone call. The first interview was with the hiring manager. Later, I met with two area managers who were her peers (2 separate interviews, 45 min each). In parallel, I had a phone call with the recruiter, who asked about my active processes with other companies and my salary expectations. The final stage was a panel interview with four people: the hiring manager and three team members (mock demo deck).

Technical Behavioral
I interviewed with ZeroFox back in September, and it was a 3-round process. First up was a technical interview with the team lead, which felt pretty chill and went smoothly. Then, the manager and director handled the second and third rounds together – those were a bit challenging but manageable overall. The HR team was super nice and professional the whole time. The only bummer was the salary offer, which seemed low compared to similar roles.

Behavioral Presentation
The recruiter was super positive, making it seem like I already had the job and asking about my start date. The hiring manager also spoke like I was already hired, saying I'd be great. The next round, the recruiter said I had a great chat and wanted me to do a final presentation. I spent a week working hard on it, even getting feedback from a friend. I gave the presentation, and the interviewers loved it. I sent thank you notes, but then heard nothing. I followed up twice over four weeks, and the recruiter finally said they hired someone 'recently.' It was frustrating to chase for an answer after a final round, especially after being led on. This whole experience felt like a waste of time and effort, and I ended up feeling ignored.
