Of all the interview processes I completed from start to finish in the month of August (which was about 8 including Braintree), Braintree's took the longest and was by far the most convoluted and confusing. I started most of my interview processes later than I did with Braintree and completed them earlier, and of the ones that required personality or skills assessments, similar to Braintree, I was only asked to prove my ability once, whereas Braintree had a take-home Excel test, a Wonderlic test, an in-person Excel test, and a credit card processing knowledge test. Truthfully, the many assessments you're required to take by Braintree for what Glassdoor seems to confirm is a relatively entry-level role is a major turn-off, especially because I would have been entering the company as someone with multiple years of professional experience and is only "behind" because I'm making a career change. My recommendation to Braintree is to simplify the process and exhibit more trust in the abilities of your candidates. You're going to lose out on great people either because they're snatched up by another employer who was quicker to act or because candidates are turned off by the fact that you don't trust them to speak to their abilities truthfully.

The interview process I felt fit the job. I had a phone interview with a recruiter who then also sent me a "take-home" excel test. I then had an onsite interview with the hiring manager and another recruiter, had to do another excel test and a basic knowledge test.

Everyone I spoke to was very nice and easy to talk to. I went through several different rounds of interview- a lot of waiting. It was a good experience but unfortunately I did not have the background they were looking for.
