I applied online. The process took two weeks.

I applied directly from their jobs board three times in different years. I received an email from the talent team to book a slot for an initial phone interview for a casual discussion. The experience was good until here each time. After this, I had a technical interview with a couple of senior engineers each time I applied. The common thing was that the interviewers sounded cold and passively rude each time. The interview was never smooth or coherent. They always looked and sounded like they had already decided at the start of the interview that they were not going to hire. This experience was unpleasant, and I never enjoyed any interview with Xero, unlike other companies where the interview was engaging and fun.
