Two screening video calls with the Tech leader and CEO followed by a technical test and a face-to-face session.
The tech test was fairly simple although the requirements seemed a little too specific to their business.
The following stage was a 2.5 hrs face-to-face interview which included 30min tech test review, 1hr 30min UX/UI interview and a 30min cultural interview. The big chunk of the interview was the UX/UI part which in my opinion felt more like a free consultation. They were asking to fix very specific issues with their existing dashboard. The final cultural interview was a nice chat, but multiple times the CEO came into the room - weirdly - trying to cut it short.
A week or so later they requested a further 45min tech interview where they “needed to ask questions that didn’t have time to ask during the - very long - face-to-face session”. During this interview, they asked some generic behaviour/technical questions, while other were yet a little too specific to their future plans with their product.
The day after the last interview I received an email that they didn’t want to proceed with an offer, which came to me with a bit of surprise as I always received positive feedbacks from them during each stage of the interview process.
Although the people I spoke to seemed very nice, I always felt that they were trying to use this process just to gather fresh ideas for FREE!!! Be careful as their interview process is very long and will take up a lot of your personal time.
