I interviewed with Miss Amara for a People and Culture role. The process itself was organised and professional, and communication was clear throughout.
The first stage was a recorded Zoom interview with someone who would have reported into the role, followed by another recorded interview with the COO. While I understand this helps streamline the process, it did feel a bit impersonal and made it hard to build a genuine connection or get a sense of the team dynamic.
I had actually withdrawn my application days beforehand because I had some hesitation around the travel requirement and didn’t want to waste anyone’s time, then two days later, I received feedback that the COO’s intuition felt something “was off” with me. While I completely understand the importance of cultural fit, I would have appreciated constructive and more timely feedback.
Overall, it was a professional process, but a more interactive interview format and constructive feedback would have made for a stronger candidate experience.
