      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Glassdoor (Sausalito, CA) in Oct 2010

      Interview

      The interview process at Glassdoor was straight forward. There was an initial 30 minute phone conversation and then a 3 hour in person interview. 30 minute phone interview: sales management wanted to understand my background, why I was looking to make a switch, why I wanted to work at Glassdoor, why I wanted to be in sales, what my goals were for the next 3 to 5 years, and my sales process. The discussion then opened turned to Glassdoor - what the site is all about, where they are headed, what success they have had so far, and what type of people they are looking for. In person interview: met with several members of the sales team to understand their day to day. Then met with HR department about on boarding process, and then met with founder who wanted to focus on a role play selling your previous product.

      Interview

      The interview process for the SAE role was very thorough and from an interviewee's perspective, pretty enjoyable. The positive energy that the recruiter, recruiting coordinator and folks I interviewed with was really genuine. I really got a good grasp into what the job entails and what it might be like to work with Glassdoor. I never felt like I needed more information or that they weren't dialed in. Overall, the process was great and one of the better interview panels I've taken part in.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Glassdoor (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2019

      Interview

      The interview process here was relatively quick and very direct. Brianna (my recruiter) was extremely helpful throughout the process whether it be via company value overviews, setting expectations with the specific role, or helping me prep for each step of the interview process. It starts with a basic introductory call with your recruiter, then you have an introductory call with the manager you would be working directly under. Assuming you pass these first two steps, you would get moved forward to a simulation pitch of their product with the manager and director of the division (you receive helpful materials to prep for this call). The last step is an in person interview in with your manager, the director, and an employee currently in the role you're interviewing for. It was a very straight forward and helpful process.
