I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Unity (Londres, Inglaterra) in Apr 2019
Interview
I applied online with a cover letter and CV. Within 10 days, I was emailed to arrange a phone interview with the in-house unity recruiter. After this, I had a Skype interview with the manager of the assistants team.
I felt instantly relaxed when I spoke to both the recruiter and manager, which meant I could I really be myself and show my personality.
At the beginning the questions were open, asking me to talk broadly about my experience. Then they were more specific, narrowing down my experience and skills, relevant for the role. Near the end I was asked about myself and my personal interests.
After both interviews I was emailed immediately with feedback, which I really appreciated. After the last interview I was given verbal feedback and offered the job.
I thought the communication throughout was impressive. I liked the interview style as it was detailed and thorough, yet at the same time, friendly, insightful and an insight into the companies culture.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you organise an online meeting for a large team, with people from different departments, roles and in different timeframes?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Unity (Montreal, QC) in May 2019
Interview
The interview process consisted of 4 stages:
1. HR interview
2. Hiring manager
3. Take-home assignment
4. 6 interviews in a row, each of 30 minutes or more
Overall the process was clear at every step and communication was also good. My only complain was that the only feedback I received was that they were looking for someone "more Senior", which is something that can probably be detected from the CV and not at the final stage of the process after many interviews and lots of time spent (both mine and the interviewers'). Unity seems like a really good company.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Unity (Southampton, Inglaterra) in Apr 2019
Interview
Initial engagement was a friendly call, introducing the role and a general sense check. which quickly led to a first interview. This was with the senior recruiter based in Brighton via Zoom. The call was detailed and informative, yet refreshingly informal. This quickly led to an onsite second interview with the Head of Engineering. The interview lasted 2 hours and was far more detailed into the specifics of the role and investigating my technical knowledge. Being successful, I then had numerous follow up calls with recruitment to discuss the finer details of the contract. This was an open process which allowed me time to review and ask any questions should there have been any.
The recruitment team were as proactive and effective as one could hope for in a process. Communication was very clear all the way through and even into my notice period, where they were in contact to make sure I had everything I needed in readiness to start my new role.
End to end this has been the most positive interview / recruitment experience i've had to date. Notoriously tech companies recruitment / onboarding processes are convoluted and slow and this was everything but.
