Asked a lot of very specific questions that in the end didn't apply to the role in question.
Interviewer wasn't very friendly either and didn't seem interested in understanding my background, just getting answers to their specific questions.
I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at HubSpot (New Galilee, PA)
Interview
The prompt before the video interview said it would take about 20 minutes. If I added all the time up for the 3 questions including the time before you answer, it was only 7 1/2 minutes. 3 questions. 7 minute interview to prove my case. Nothing about the position. I’ve been implementing HubSpot to clients for years. Was one of my top 3 companies to work for. Other reviews state the hiring manager telling them what to work on, but I just got a generic email saying they will keep me in mind for future positions.
So sorry to hear you had a negative experience-we let people know on the time commitment to be considerate (some folks like more time to prep and we want to respect their time) but appreciate your feedback on the overall process and where we can improve. Sincerely, Katie
I applied online. I interviewed at HubSpot (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
Standard interview process, began with a recruiter call, hiring manager call and then to a project based task plus a panel. The recruiter was very helpful plus clear and concise about next steps, timing and expectations.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your background and why are you interested in this position
I applied through other source. I interviewed at HubSpot (Singapore) in Oct 2022
Interview
Horrified by the cold and hostile approach of the HR personnel. No introduction of the company was said at the starting point of the call and throughout! The call started with " Are you ready for the interview?" and followed by " Alright, lets start the interview. Introduce yourself." Talk about basic courtesy 101. HR is still the face of the company! goodness, gracious. Hubspot is all about CRM integration for a cohesive overall customer journey and experience. Your interview process seems to speak otherwise. It was just questions after questions. and NOT a conversation? When asked about career progression and the timeline as I was curious about it, the HR was so hostile and replied " is this a concern for you? " No, i am very concerned about the way HR department at hubspot hires HR executive. oh god. What a blessing in disguise, think I dodge a bullet.

Question 1
Introduce yourself two other behavioural questions that are utmost meaningless in my opinion.
