The interview process
Described in candidates’ own words.
“It was a super day interview, basically like speed dating. I talked to 3 or 4 operations managers back-to-back in the same room, rotating between them. Each chat lasted about 20 minutes.”Candidate-reported process
“We had 4 interviews, each lasting 30 minutes with a 5-minute break in between. The first interviewer went over the role and expectations. The second interviewer focused on behavioral questions. The third interview had a technical slant. The final interview was more of a conversation where I could ask my own questions.”Candidate-reported process
“They typically hire through 'super days,' which involve multiple interviewers and teams in short, 20-minute segments. These usually include some structured questions along with getting to know you and baseline questions.”Candidate-reported processMore reports lockedRead 300+ more interview experiences
