I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Retool (New York, NY) in Aug 2022
Interview
Had an initial phone screen with recruiter and two calls with a hiring manager.
First call was to discuss my sales background, second call was technical questions about retool.
Unless you are currently working in a technical sale probably not a good fit, interviewers requested I spend several days learning retool and then asked a lot of questions that were industry specific.
This wouldn't be a problem but limited direction was given on what to prepare for and then they threw out a lot of "got you" questions if you weren't knowledgable about the topic they focused on.
Pay was also way under market for the level they advertise.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Retool (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2024
Interview
Recruiter Screen, HM Screen, then back-to-back interviews with HM (Mock Discovery with a provided company & propmt), Technical, Culture-fit, VP/Attainment Metrics, Final Presentation to Panel- Presenting a company that you think would be a fit for Retool and how you would present to them in a second call (VP Eng needing to present to their Finance to justify the Retool spend).
