Was reached out to by a global recruiter on the team. After screening was scheduled in for an interview with the hiring manager. The meeting was cancelled a couple hours prior. After follow up, there has been no response since.

Deel's interview process was unprofessional and chaotic and gave me the worst interview experience of my life. They did not respond to emails in a timely manner, did not send any feedback after the last stage of the interview and overall were unprofessional. It took me 3 (!!!) follow-ups to receive at least some feedback. And after reviewing other feedbacks here, I see that the problem is huge and that's their normal practice. The feedback I received after the interviews and huge amount of time that I invested was generic and unclear, making the whole process feel messy and shady. That pompous brand of Deel turned out to be just nothing. Overall, after talking to multiple people from the company, it is clear that the whole organization is immature: they complained to me that recruiting is lacking data driven approach, causing problems between TA and Engineering, that will eventually of course lead to wrongful hires and collapse of the culture in general. Luckily, I won't be there and do not recommend anyone to be there as well.

I had a first round interview with the hiring manager. It's online and the hiring manager is quite easy to talk to. They are quite responsive and communicate very quickly about the outcome.

Solicité el puesto por otro medio. El proceso duró 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Deel (Toronto, ON) en jun 2023
Entrevista
It was an extremely long process (1,5m) but I was so excited at first that I didn't care.
I had 4 rounds of interviews. Met with the first TAM (twice), then a team lead and then a very cold new TAM coming from a GAFAM company. I couldn't believe how cold he was, I could literally feel that he didn't want to be there. It's such a shame cause the two other individuals I met were awesome and very friendly
As I said my last interview was very odd and turned me off completely.
Few days later, the first TAm I met called me to give me the feedback. The feedback I received was that during my last interview apparently I wasn't strong enough to turn passive candidates into active one and close deals, I was so shocked to hear that , that I couldn't even respond to it. We didn't even talk about that at all in my 4 interviews. So it was clearly a BS feedback. They clearly can't hire senior TA from developed countries, it's too expensive. They will hire people out of Romania, east Europe or latin America much cheaper.....
I was so excited to join Deel but unfortunately that will never happen
