Engineering Manager Interview Experience - United States

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process was similar to most tech companies. I had a meeting with HR, an interview with the hiring manager, and 3-4 panel interviews focusing on different areas, such as product, behavioral, and case study.

The entire process took over a month, though the recruiter initially told me it should take half of that because they're very quick. At the end of the process, the recruiter called me and told me I performed well during the interview and an offer would be incoming.

The offer never came, and I was eventually told the position was on hold. Their communication was great until this period, though once the offer was incoming, they disappeared.

Months later, they called me back in and suggested the position was back online and they were prepared to make an offer, which of course, never came. At this point, the communication stopped again, which I sort of expected after my original experience.

Their interview process is a lengthy investment, and I would hesitate to recommend it to anyone based on my experience. Run away, don't walk.
