Review from Engineering Dept
The wuestion at the interview
competent people interviewed me and they knew what the job entailed.
I was not interviewed by my current company as I’ve taken part in two acquisitions and one merge
Actually i did not go through an interview. I came in through a merger.
The recruiter was phenomenal and I had a lot of interviews
Being able to complete a project to demonstrate my work ability
Initial Screening part of selection
The process allows you to be yourself and showcase what you can bring to the company rather than how can you fit into a box they'd want you in.
Very informal and references able to endorse my application ahead of time.

Review from Engineering Dept
Human Resources Rep and the speed of her response to my questions
Not very organized, things got messed up
Review from IT Dept
Multiple opportunities to meet with not only the hiring manager, but the entire team(s) that the role will support.
Fast, informal, friendly conversation focused on learning more about the candidate as a person and their values
The interviews were scheduled in quick succession and the interviewers were very respectful and thoughtful.
It was friendly, professional, and I felt the people interviewing me were interested in me compared to some interviews that seem like I'm on trial in the past.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Unessisary beauracracy needs to be eliminated Tools need updates to support hiring managers needs The recruting process is bias, resulting in skewed candidate pools Stop wasting everyone's time when there is a preferred and preselected intetnal candidate Modernize not just systems but your thinking
Stop having so many rounds of interviews and stop giving people who know nothing about the role veto. Takes forever to backfill.
