      Senior Product Designer Interview

      11 May 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Oakland, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Marqeta (Oakland, CA)

      Interview

      The recruiter from Marqeta reached out and I talked with her then the head of product design. After that they set up an inperson interview. When I went in for my in person interview I had 1:1s with 5 different people which was a 4 hour interview. I really enjoyed the people I interviewed with and for the most part it seemed as though we were aligned in most areas. The only off feeling I got in terms of personality was with the Head of Product Design. The reasoning behind that was they mentioned on the B2B side of the platform they do not do user research, nor do they see a future where that is possible. I have never experienced this comment from someone who mentioned they were bringing design thinking into the company. They also seemed to dislike that I enjoyed utilizing a design process, yet in all my interviews they said the goal was to bring on a person who could help them define a deisgn process as they had not done that yet. Everyone was always so busy, which is typical for the startup life style and I'd be completely okay if they admitted that. However, people would tell me they are really busy and in a growth period so they sometimes work weekends, but then would follow up with "I don't think your job would require that of you though." I highly doubt that would be the case. I don't even mind working extra if the job is right, then I am passionate about working hard to create the product.

      Senior Product Designer Interview

      15 Nov 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Marqeta

      Interview

      If I could give a negative rating to the recruiter, I would say it without hesitation. 1. I felt like the pay range mentioned to me during the recruiter call discriminated against my gender because I am a woman. They had zero empathy and scheduled interviews without asking me for my availability 2. They needed to tell me what to expect in each conversation. So whiteboarding and portfolio presentation was a surprise. 3. They dared to tell me that I had been rejected 5 mins after my last interview consisting of 9 rounds. Their hiring process is seriously flawed if they need nine rounds and waste my time. This is beyond sickening and shows the culture of the company. I am so glad I didn't make it because this would have been the worst move in my career. Goodbye to this terrible company and its employees.

      Hi there. We're so sad to hear you felt unprepared for your interview with Marqeta. Since there is only one candidate who reached the on-site stage for this role, we have reached out to you directly via email to connect on where this disconnect occurred. To make sure our process is clear for all future candidates reading this review: 1. Marqeta does not discriminate on the basis of sex, gender, or any other legally protected characteristic. The pay range disclosed for a role is disclosed exactly the same to each candidate. 2. Preparation materials are a standard part of our interview process. Candidates are always asked for availability windows prior to scheduling. 3. Our interview process is 3 rounds made up of 5-6 calls total: a recruiter call, a call with the hiring manager, and then a virtual on-site consisting of 3-4 calls with potential teammates and collaborators. After an internal investigation, we are confident that our standard process was followed and that no wrongdoing occurred on behalf of your recruiter or any members of the hiring team. If you'd like to continue the conversation and provide any details we may not have visibility into, please reach out to careers@marqeta.com or reply to the direct outreach we have sent you.
