I was cold recruited from a higher up so I applied because the product seemed promising. I went through the 1st round interview with a mid management person. They were polite, friendly, had actually read my resume beforehand, and didn't ask too many questions. I was told in that interview next step was with another person who I believe is the equivalent of a step higher up but in a different department. 1st interview was 30 minutes. Interview round 2 was fine. The interviewer was polite, asked a couple of more detailed questions focusing on how I process and execute things. Overall was casual and easy going interview that lasted 30 minutes. Following round 2 was a critical thinking logic quiz. It asked a bunch of trick questions and was utterly pointless in assessing any quality that would matter in any candidate. Paired with this was a project to demonstrate ability, capability, and how you strategize on something directly pertinent to the role. This project had 2 parts and to be done well takes an extraordinary amount of time. All the same I passed with flying colors on this part and made it to the next round. Into round 3, a 45 minute interview with 2 of the 3 founders. One was very friendly the other clearly not. I was asked questions about my background, my project, and my ambitions. The interview wrapped on on time and seemed positive. The next day I received an email written by the interviewer of round 2 with round 1 interviewer included telling me I had been rejected because another candidate had more "healthcare marketing experience" than I did. So after an unbelievable amount of time consuming work for an interview process, I lost out due to something that could have been determined by simply reading our resumes at the beginning, or if they had bothered asking questions more tactically specific and granular in the healthcare marketing space since that was so important.

I felt compelled to leave this review because every other one was negative and I had a really positive experience. Anyone should be honored to work with them, truly. The product has great potential. The team cares about the work and is smart and communicative. Steps: 1. 30 minute call with team member 2. 30 minute call with who you would directly report to 3. Assessment and project 4. 45 minute call with CEO and CTO There were no trick questions throughout the interview process. Just great "get to know each other" calls. I hate doing projects for applications BUT this one had a lot of creative freedom where it did not have to be about PicassoMD. I charge $350/hour for my consulting work so I appreciated I could turn in the work without them "running away" with my ideas for free because I did the project about something they could not adjust for their product. Two days after the final interview, I received a personal note from the direct report saying they hired someone with more healthcare marketing experience. Totally understandable. Wish I had known ahead of time how important that was. Am I bummed I did not get the role? Absolutely. But, again I want future people applying to this team to know I really believe this would be a great place to work.
