After sending in my highly personalised application I got a rejection email back. It said that "a lot of thought and consideration went into your application". However, the rejection email was for a different role than the one I applied for.
I'm not coming away with a great impression of their hiring practices.

Overall great interview process. The recruiter is amazing and ensures that you can always come to her about questions and additional preparation before interviews. Interviewers are great as well - expect to do a mock cold call with them so they can gauge how you respond to feedback.

The BEST interview process I've had while interviewing with 8 different companies. I didn't get my hopes high for the interview process because of the reviews on Glassdoor, BUT my interview experience was incredible. It took some time for them to get back to me after the recruiter phone interview (because they had to go through 1000+ applicants) but once I received the invitation for the hiring manager interview they were on top of it!
The recruiter called me before each interview to help me prepare (the only company that did this). They even moved around the VPs schedule to accommodate with my other interviews. The interviewers were the most personable people I've interviewed with. I forgot I was in an interview for most of them...The director of sales even made sure to call me afterwards to answer any questions I had because our conversation was cut short (even though it was a 1 hour interview).
In terms of consistency and integrity, they were the only company to not change up the OTE or offer details between the recruiter call and final offer.
In terms of their SDRs, they were SUPER helpful as well! They helped prepare me for the interviews and even agreed to get on call with me on a weekend.

Overall the interview process was easy, but disappointing. Only 2 interviews, one with the Hiring Manager, the other with the Director. I interviewed in Jan 2024.
Both interviews were very casual and had great flowing conversations and when asked if had any hesitancies both said no and thought I was a great candidate. It took over a month to hear back and I had to keep reaching out to recruiter for any updates. I finally got a generic email saying I didn't get the role. I called the Hiring Manager the next day looking for feedback as to how I can improve for future opportunities. He could not find me in their HR system, eventually admitted he didn't remember our interview and didn't know if I had been put on pause or been completely turned down. This company has a lack of communication throughout and is very disorganized.
