Process
The process took two months.
- First interview: A chat with HR.
- Second interview: A technical interview.
- Third and final interview: A meeting with the potential manager.
The HR interview was smooth with typical HR questions. The technical interview was rather disconcerting since they asked me questions about unrelated technologies according to the job description. I did my best. Then, I didn't receive feedback after four weeks, so I sent HR an email. I had to wait for five more weeks, and finally, the manager interview took place. It seemed to me like a monologue in which the manager talked a lot, and I wasn't allowed to even ask him a single question.

ContentSquare Work Experiences
- 2.0Don't come if you don't want to be randomly firedSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeTel Aviv-Yafo, IsraelJanuary 19, 2024Pros: The engineering team is very skillful.Cons: The company has really gone nuts. They went into a path of hypergrowth, recruited thousands of people, and with the current economic context, their sales went downhill. So, what solution did they choose? Fire as many as they can. In Israel, 40% of the R&D department got fired. These were very good and skillful people; they just paid the price of bad management and business decisions. They are not hiring anyway, and I don't think they will be hiring anytime soon. This is a very unpredictable company, so don't plan your future with it. Maybe they don't even have a future for themselves.
