Recruiter was sharp. As for the sales leaders I met with, not so much. Asked me to follow up with specific action items for next steps. I did and never heard a word back. I'm big on respect and accountability (backing up what you say you're going to do). Both of these RVPs lacked in those two areas and in the general characteristics you look for in leaders. Shows to the type of culture handshake is building and why they are so many poor reviews.

My interview with Handshake consisted of a recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, hiring manager peer interview, mock discovery presentation, and a final executive interview. The entire process from start to finish took about 2 weeks and I found every stage to be well-structured and thoughtfully designed to assess my skills, experience, and cultural fit. Everyone I met was friendly, knowledgeable, and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me as a person and a professional - a testament to the company’s culture and values. I especially appreciated the recruiter (Luke Losin) who kept me informed every step of the way, expressed authentic enthusiasm, and truly went above and beyond to ensure I had a positive experience!
