I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ideals (Zürich) in Feb 2026
Interview
Did the first round with HR online. The person was professional and asked relevant questions to the positions. To conclude, we agreed I would receive feedback in the next days and I did.
The recruitment process was disappointing from start to finish. There were consistent delays and a lack of communication, which made it difficult to understand where I stood throughout. I invested significant time into preparing a portfolio, but the feedback provided was vague and not particularly constructive, which made the experience feel one-sided and undervalued. Based on the interaction, the hiring manager did not appear to have the experience or subject-matter knowledge required to effectively review portfolios, which raised concerns about the quality and fairness of the assessment. Overall, the process lacked professionalism and structure. A more transparent and candidate-focused approach would significantly improve the experience.

Interview
Honestly the best I’ve ever had. Props to Jeffrey for handling it exceptionally. Great process and follow-ups. Clear instructions and values. Pushed outside the comfort zone which was interesting and had a smart well thought of process.

Thank you for such a kind review. We're really pleased to hear the process felt meaningful and well-crafted. Jeffrey will be glad to read this too. We believe the hiring journey should give candidates a real sense of what working at Ideals is like, so it's great to hear that landed. Looking forward to everything ahead.
