I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Adelaide in Mar 2024
Interview
Interview process lasted about 3-4 weeks, with one interview with a team member each week. Went through 4 rounds of interviews starting with the CEO, then with head of Marketing, Creative Director and Director of Partnerships.
All of these interviews lasted 30+ minutes and were fairly straightforward. The questions were mostly behavioral as well as some technical experience questions.
After going through 4 rounds of interviews I followed up after not hearing anything back and never was contacted by Adelaide again. In the future, it would be courteous to extend an email to simply decline a candidate who has been through 4 rounds of interviews and dedicated significant time and energy to prepare.
Company seemed great--super smart and passionate people. Unfortunate their recruiting process fell short in the way of professionalism.

Like other Marketing candidates have mentioned, the process felt pretty straightforward and the conversations felt like they flowed naturally and were ultimately productive. After interviewing with a junior HR employee, the CEO, and then finally the Creative Director I was ultimately told that they were "moving forward with other candidates whose experience and skills more closely watch what we are looking for." I was disappointed to get such a shallow rejection given the tenor of the conversation and the fact that my skills and experience aligned so closely with the job description. I respect the company's decision, but can't help but feel like the interview process was performative and may have been a way to source marketing ideas from qualified candidates.
