Entrevista
I had high hopes for the opportunity at ALPFA, especially given the mission and the speed at which the initial interview process moved. Unfortunately, my experience changed drastically during the 1:1 interview with a manager, which raised several red flags.
The call left a poor first impression. The interviewer appeared on camera in an extremely casual setup — wearing a cap, in a dimly lit and cluttered space, which felt unprofessional and distracting. It gave the impression that they were unprepared or not fully engaged in the process.
When I asked about the organization’s culture and work environment, the response focused more on personal grievances. The interviewer mentioned turning down a promotion due to the extra workload and spoke negatively about coworkers, which was disappointing to hear and made me question the overall team dynamic.
It’s unfortunate because the mission of the organization is meaningful, but the lack of professionalism during the interview and the internal remarks shared left me feeling unsure about how staff are supported or how the organization functions day to day.

Entrevista
I recently had an interview with ALPFA, and overall, it was a positive experience. The process started with a quick 30-minute phone screening with a recruiter, who was friendly and asked about my background and goals.
The second round was a video call with a manager and a team member. They asked a mix of technical and behavioral questions, focusing on my problem-solving skills and past experiences. One of the questions was challenging but fair, and I appreciated that they allowed me to think through it instead of rushing me.
What stood out was how much they emphasized their company culture. They shared stories about team collaboration and professional growth opportunities, which made me even more excited about the role.
A small downside was the length of time between the second round and receiving feedback—it took over two weeks, and I had to follow up once. That said, the response I eventually got was detailed, whether I moved forward or not.
