After screening with HR, you go to hiring manager, then peer interviews, then panel. The panel is an exercise, mock QBR, ten slides. I made it through to panel, presented, then was told feedback would come within 24 hours, received nothing so followed up with HR - ghosted. This is a terrible experience for anyone interviewing and I don't know how they can say one of their corporate values is "Connect" when they cannot take five minutes to send an email. If you're reading this before interviewing - waste your time at your own peril. If you're reading this and work in recruitment at Writer: practice what you preach.

Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Writer (Londres, Inglaterra) en sept 2025
Entrevista
I had a 5-stage interview with WRITER: an initial 30-minute chat with talent, a 30-minute meeting with the hiring manager, a 45-minute to 1-hour panel session with presentation, and two 15-minute conversations with senior leaders including the CEO (one video, one phone call). Feedback was provided between 2-4 days after each stage, and Emily (Talent) and her team kept me well-informed throughout. Whilst it didn't lead to an offer, I found the process well-executed and respectful of candidates' time. The entire process took just over 4 weeks from application to final decision. I'd definitely consider future opportunities with WRITER based on my positive interactions with the team and my passion for the product and their future vision.
Little clarity in role expectations or salary; not communicative during the process. No one seemed to really know what they wanted out of this position. Made it to the final round with the CEO who presumably wanted to brag about the company and then ask for suggestions on Customer Success. Company is clearly pushing hard w marketing but I'd be cautious of questionable leadership and lack of process or organization.
