Interview
I was initially interviewed by a very friendly man working in HR. Then I had too many interviews with too many different people to count. After a 1.5 month process, the final answer to my application was negative.
Everybody was polite and seemed to know what they were talking about.
But come on. At least 7 interviews spread out on 1.5 month, to finally hear a big NO. Really? Does a company need to interview you 7 times for 1.5 month to realise you're not the right fit?
I feel like I lost my time, time I could have used to try to get hired somewhere else.
It's ironic that a company specializing in company/interview reviews doesn't take the time to analyse their own process and realise that you don't need 1,5 month to know if a candidate is good enough for the job.

Question 1
What would you do to localise the reviews appearing on Glassdoor if the language used doesn't correspond to the right country.

Interview
Started with an HR screener interview, took 30 mins which covered basic questions with the recruiter (tell me about your CV? Why delivery hero?). Then followed by a call with the manager, this was also 30 mins (but on the invitation it said 1 hour), time was cut short so then extended onto a final onsite which took 3 hours.
There was 3 rounds of interviews on the onsite:
1st round was 30 mins with junior team members and covered more personality style questions (how do you respond to change? which tools do you use), overall quite relaxed.
2nd round was 1 hour with the manager and a senior person in the team, which had more technical and skillset style questions (i.e. How would you respond to this type of conflict? How do you manage such a scenario? Give me an example of a time you dealt with conflicting priorities) as well as general interview questions (Why delivery hero? Why this team? Why this role? How does the perfect job look for you?)
3rd round was with the senior director, who the team is working with and reporting to. This was quite casual and felt more like a conversation. (Tell me how you usually project manage)
The offer came about a week later.
Very straightforward, there were some small delays in between but overall a smooth and transparent process.

Interview
Very thorough, but efficient. They don’t dawdle or waste anyone’s time. Speedy feedback - I never waited more than 24 hrs for a response. They clearly take the hiring process very seriously and keep it very positive.
