I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Budapest) in Jul 2019
Interview
I applied via Glassdoor and I got an email to do assessments via Indeed. I passed and was scheduled an interview in the office. It was a pleasant session, conducted by two interviewers. After that, I got an email to schedule for a final interview with the Senior Team Lead. It was a video call interview via Zoom. The energy was different and I knew that I didn't nail it as well as in the first round.

Question 1
How would you explain conversion rate to a 4 year old?
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Tampa, FL)
Interview
Lots of getting to know you type questions trying to assess me as a person rather than my work experience. I had an interview in person and then one during a Skype call.
I applied online. I interviewed at Wise (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
First round was a Skype interview. The person who interviewed me was unprofessionally disinterested from the moment he called, 10 minutes late. Once he called the first question was a general tell me a bit about yourself and what drew you to this role, then when I started answering he decided he didn't like the room he was in so he stood up, left the room and started walking down the corridor. Found a room he liked sat down, fixed his hair, took his pullover jumper and then re-fixed his hair.
I was distracted but kept going, perhaps it was his first interview. Then he asked a follow-up question and again, as soon as I started answering he stood up once more, left the room and started walking down the hall into another room.
Overall, it was a strange experience and the level of engagement completely put me off. Maybe he didn't think my CV was a good fit from the beginning but if that was the case it would have been better off not interviewing. It was definitely a waste of both our time.
