Process was quite quick and impersonal. One day after applying to the position, I got a standard email with the subject "Time to chat with Elastic!".
The email was an invitation for a 20-minute discussion about the role and my background with a recruiter based in SF. There was a link to a scheduling tool where you select a time slot.
I chose the first available time slot, which was 8 days later.
The recruiting lady called on time, and we got directly into the topic. Communication was not very fluent: there was noise and the signal was not the best.
Communication broke after 8 minutes. I double-checked that I had full LTE signal on my phone and tested a call to verify there were no issues on my side.
I tried to call back and wrote an email to follow up, but there was no answer on the other side.
I never heard back again from Elastic.
Just very standard, simple questions.
