Candidatei-me por indicação de um funcionário. O processo levou 5 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela SurveyMonkey (Ottawa, ON) em set. de 2019
Entrevista
I applied to SurveyMonkey through an employee referral. Overall, the process consisted of:
1 phone screening with the recruiter;
1 phone interview with the hiring manager;
2 phone interviews with team members;
1 full-day, onsite consisting of 1 presentation and 5 interviews;
For most interviews, the questions asked about my previous experiences and how dealt with with situations in the past. A lot of it was also focused on my working style, how I collaborate with others, things that make me curious.
For the onsite presentation, I was asked to present two past projects to a panel formed by designers, product managers and engineers. After the presentation, I had 1:1 interviews with some of the same people sitting in the presentation.
Although it may seem like a long process, every single person I talked to was extremely nice. The recruiter did I great job of following up at each step and setting the right expectation. So, I knew what was coming. The onsite may seem intimidating but people understand is an intense day and make sure you feel relaxed and have as many pauses as you need.
Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 3 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa SurveyMonkey.
Entrevista
1) Short phone call with the recruiter.
2) Call with a design team member.
3) Design Challenge
The design team provided no feedback on the challenge I submitted. The design team didn't even have a discussion with me about my work or allow me to present my work. What a joke!
I interviewed with a person of lesser experience and talent, yet was asked to submit a design challenge. Sure kiddo, I'll do your design challenge! LOL! Why is SM putting Sr. Product Designers through design challenges? Isn't a resume and portfolio enough? How can SM judge a designer by a design challenge when it's not *even* close to what a day in the life of a designer looks like? Real Designers: research, collaborate, work with subject matter experts, interview users, AND THEN iterate to come up with good solutions. Stop judging designers by giving them a silly challenge and then deciding if you think they are good or not. That is not even close to how you can tell if a designer is experienced or not.
-- > Poor designer interview decisions. Poor process.
The communication was extremely slow. I was not given any chance to ask questions, understand benefits, etc. Extremely one-sided interview process with a cold "no thanks" call from the recruiter after waiting forever to hear back. Wasted an entire three weeks of my time.
Glad I didn't get the job. Won't be applying here again.
