Initial phone call with a member of the Atlassian recruitment team that was organised via email. This was really positive and friendly with lot's of focus on my strengths and experience, plus a great insight into the company, team, and this specific role. There was also great transparency about the forthcoming recruitment process which was a bonus. A face-to-face (via Zoom) interview was arranged shortly after and this was also a really interesting and positive experience. Senior management from across the organisation take on the interview duties at this stage so it was insightful to hear more from someone who had greater experience in the specific area of the role. Sadly, I wasn't successful and did not progress to the final stages, however the email to explain this was thoughtful and considerate. This shows a genuine level of respect for candidates time and that Atlassian value the impression they leave with people. Some useful insight into why I didn't progress (lack of experience in comparison to other candidates) and an encouraging suggestion to keep up the interest for potential future roles with the business meant a lot from such a fantastic company.

Had a first interview with the recruiter, which I thought went well, then had a month of radio silence before finding out that I'd been passed to the next stage. I was interviewed by the recruiting manager, which again, I thought went well. Another 2 weeks of radio silence, followed by a generic email telling me I'd been unsuccessful, and a refusal to provide me with any feedback. The ethos of the company doesn't follow through to the recruitment process.
