Candidatei-me de outra forma. Fui entrevistado pela Afero (Los Altos, CA) em fev. de 2026
Entrevista
I received an email from Afero promoting the job listing. After responding to the solicitation there was an initial phone screen; very typical, introductions, history, pay expectations. Then an internal recruiter works with you to schedule further rounds of interviews. Each of the further rounds were remove video calls. One thing that was a little surprising to me was that each of the interviews felt very repetitive. Each interviewer asked pretty much the same (or very similar) questions, basically reviewing previous roles based on my resume. There was a little variance based on being interviewed by different people, but it seemed more repetitive going through the same things over and over again instead of having some structure of, this is a coding interview, this is a design interview, this is a behavioral/cultural fit interview. There there wasn't any of that. I interviewed with 4 members of the team, and that took about 5 weeks time.
I enjoyed interviewing with each person but did not get an offer.

Recruiter call for screening followed by a hiring manager interview. The recruiter asks for your relevant experience and asks for available dates. A hiring manager interview is basic, but it can go into random, rapid-fire.
Candidatei-me pessoalmente. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Afero (San Francisco, CA) em abr. de 2024
Entrevista
I had an initial phone screen to assess if there was a match and then follow up with engineering, operations, and security. Many of the interviews were not organized, so this seems more of a personality-style interview to see if I get along with other staff. Ultimately, most of the staff were passionate and friendly, and I had consistent positive feedback. There was one outlier, where one interview was very impersonal, very mechanical, reading questions from a checklist. I thought I did well, but I couldn't build a rapport with the interviewer. In the end, I was ghosted for 2 weeks without the results and the company was not transparent with their feedback.
