Deel interview questions

HR interview first, then followed by two interviews from the finance team. No assessments were asked for. The second interview was with hiring manager and third with someone from the team.

I went through four rounds of interviews for a Product role at Deel. The process started well and was well-structured at first, but the experience deteriorated over time. After investing significant time preparing and presenting a detailed case study (which was described as “excellent”), I still had to constantly follow up to move to the next steps. The final interview suffered from technical issues, poor communication and the interviewer in a noisy environment, which made it feel rushed and unprofessional. What stood out the most, however, was the complete lack of respect for candidates’ time. Despite committing to provide a decision by a specific date (after I mentioned having another offer), the recruiting team simply went silent. I had to chase for updates several times, and even after being rejected, no actual feedback was provided, just a generic message and empty promises to follow up that were never fulfilled. It’s disappointing to see a company that promotes a “remote-first” and “people-first” culture treat candidates this way. The process felt one-sided, with little regard for the time and effort candidates invest.
