I applied online. The process took two weeks.

The interview process started with an initial one-hour video call with one of the Engineering Managers. It covered a few things from a line management perspective as well as how to create high-performing teams. The interviewer was very friendly and gave me time to ask questions.

Next were two face-to-face interviews with two interviewers each. One was about cultural fit, and another one was about line management. All the interviewers were friendly and asked good and challenging questions.

After all these rounds, the feedback I got back from the recruitment team was very positive. I was told I needed to have one last conversation with the CTO to talk about the feedback they had for me after the interviews, as well as to give me the opportunity to ask more questions about the company and the challenges they were facing and how I would go about contributing towards improving the culture, etc.

Disappointingly, this conversation was a proper interview where the CTO was asking me exactly the same questions as in the previous rounds. There was no time at all to discuss my feedback, nor did I have time to ask anything about the company. It was a complete miscommunication from the recruitment team and not at all in line with the company's value about transparency.

Tell us about a time you managed an underperforming team member, what happened, and what did you do?
