I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Slack in Aug 2021
Interview
Creative way to approach candidates per email by the head-hunrers. Later there was some mixture between personal approach, system automation and notifications (that need updating) and non personal follow up. Questions being asked and the answers by the head recruiter were very standard and too restrictive.
I applied through Linkedin and got a response from Recruiter. We had initial call and recruiter asked me to submit my availability for technical interview. I submitted my availability but never heard back from a recruiter. Followed up several times for 3 weeks but never received any response. For last follow up email I received automated response stating the email address doesn’t exist. Apparently the recruiter left the organisation and my candidature was lost during handover. I tried reaching out to another recruiter on Linkedin but my request was declined.
So, my impression - is they don’t value the candidates and if they can’t value the candidates I doubt they value their employees.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Slack (New York, NY) in Aug 2021
Interview
Recruiter round. First round is 1.5 hour deep dive into your resume (all the way back to undergrad), no need to prep with understanding of Slack. Second round is 1 hour presentation covering your background, deals you've sold in the past, and how you would sell Slack.
