Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fui entrevistado pela Braze (Chicago, IL) em abr. de 2021
Entrevista
The interview process was just like any other. I got pooled into the candidates for the role through the recruiter on LinkedIn. I never actually applied, but instead I received a message saying my background is impressive and everything else the typical LinkedIn messages say. Got bypassed for the phone screen and sent directly to the hiring manager. First interview with the hiring manager was chill and a normal conversation over the phone. After that I completed a panel interview with 2 potential teammates, followed by a mock presentation to about 5 individuals.
I’m not going to sit here and say the interview process was poor, because it wasn’t. My issue was the lack of diversity through the interview process, which is a shame in 2021, and should’ve been a red flag for me. I didn’t end up getting the role, which was extremely frustrating due to the fact you have to create a presentation as the final step. I spent time away from my current job to complete a thorough and detailed, quality presentation. After that, I received a generic letter stating they went with “applicants that better matched their needs”. With the time and effort i put in, you’d think I’d receive some personal touch to the email. Keep in mind the recruiter sought me out on LinkedIn, not the other way around. Overall, the company offers a cool product, but their interview diversity can use some touching up.
Straightforward process, just a lot of effort and time to risk not getting the role.

Very positive. Lots of information provided to help with the interview process and incentives to show gratitude for the time it takes to interview. Everyone I spoke to was very friendly, it seems like a great place to work
Screening call with the recruiter, easy take home assessment, 3x rounds with Customer Success Directors. Everyone I spoke with was nice, but I got rejected with an automated email providing no feedback. Considering they are not a big company, they should consider providing feedback to applicants to avoid ruining the application experience

This was a standard tech interview with a recruiter, then managerial interview with a hiring manager. Followed by a decision. The process was relatively simple and straightforward. The interviewers were prompt and polite
