I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Thumbtack (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2020
Interview
I applied via referral, and the process from start to finish took about 2 months.
Michelle was my recruiter and AJ was my recruiting coordinator. They were both great to work with. I especially appreciated AJ taking the time to help me prep for the interviews and keeping me updated on the process. Michelle did a good job of keeping things moving rapidly after the onsite. The only constructive feedback I have here is that she missed the wrap-up and was late to one of our calls, which she did apologize for.
Everyone I spoke with was awesome! I was genuinely excited about the prospect of working with them. They all seemed happy and enthusiastic about the future of the company. I'm seriously bummed I won't get to work with them!
The role also seemed interesting and with the opportunity to make a lot of impact. I was initially worried that they were still hiring for a manager for the team and that they'd had to let go of their L&D team earlier in the year. However, it sounds like they had turned a corner and were focused on rebuilding the team.
Their offer was fair and competitive. I had a chance to talk to the CEO during the offer process, which was cool.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The behavioral interview questions were pretty standard and focused on interpersonal dynamics, communicating with stakeholders, EQ, project/program management
I also had to do a case study and that was focused on building a project plan and draft of management values/fundamentals.
It's such a pleasure to hear that AJ and Michelle were so great to work with. We always value your feedback and we'll be sure to pass your thoughts along to our team. We're happy to know that the prospect of working with our team was genuinely exciting to you and we appreciate the time you spent with us during the interview process. We wish you all the best in your career and hope the next year is one that is full of success.
