I applied for the People Operations (HR) Generalist position in October 2021, completed multiple rounds of interviews, and was ultimately not selected. The interview process was very purposeful: the team set very clear expectations and evaluation criteria, asked thoughtful questions, and gave candid responses. It felt more like a conversation with friends more than an interview, which was a refreshing experience. Every touch-point from the initial outreach to the disposition were thoughtful and well structured. The two areas of improvement I would recommend to the team are: (1) Speed - It took several weeks to go through 2 rounds of interviews, and another couple to hear back. Setting the clear expectation was great, but making quicker decisions in a candidates market is crucial. (2) Remove the question on "what were your last 3 Google searches?" I understand the intention but it felt uncomfortable.
