I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Glassdoor (Dublín, Dublín) in Jun 2017
Interview
The process began with a meet and greet with the team, a really enjoyable experience which allowed me to meet the team members, hear about their journeys and their roles at Glassdoor. This was followed by a 30minute telephone interview with a HR representative, then a 1.5 hour interview split into three half hour interviews with members of the Glassdoor team on site and finally a presentation to the Sales Development team. Throughout the process I was guided by a member of the recruitment team in the US who's help and support was invaluable throughout the entire process.

Interview
In summary, I found the interview process at Glassdoor to be thorough, transparent and well organized.
The process encompassed a number of video-based interviews done remotely, a series of face-to-face interviews at Glassdoor's offices and finally reference checks. The approach felt holsitic in that my interviewers included a number of prospective peers, individuals who would form part of my team and senior executives in the business.
The content of my interviews was varied and included behavioral questions (e.g. Tell me about a time that...), problem solving questions (e.g. How would you approach...) and questions focused on culture fit. Most interviews lasted around 45-60 minutes. I was given lots of opportunity to ask my own questions and I found my interviewers to be really open in their responses (e.g. discussing both strengths and challenges for the company).
I found the recruiting team to be very proactive in keeping me updated. Throughout the process I felt well informed about my progress and the next steps - I never needed to send a follow-up email to request an update.
