I applied online. I interviewed at Algolia in Dec 2021
Interview
Don't even bother interviewing here. It took this company 2 weeks to set-up a call with me and once the call was finally set up, no one showed up. There was no prior notice. Even after being ghosted, I did not receive an apology or any written statement; all I received was an automated interview feedback form to fill out. You can guess how I filled that out. Incredibly unprofessional to set-up a call but to end up being ghosted without notice. If this is how the company treats potential candidates can't imagine what it would be to work there. Incredibly unprofessional.

Interview
I applied online through LinkedIn, then received shortly email from the HR and scheduled interview. The interview with the recruiter went well and the interviewer told me she would schedule an interview with the CFO. In the next few days we scheduled an interview with the CFO. However, the next day or so the recruiter said that the CFO is no longer available during this time and we will have to reschedule. I completely understood and asked what what would be a good date to reschedule. However, I never got a reply. I think the recruiter should have been just honest and let me know that they will not continue to interview me for this position which would be much professional compared to just being silent.

Interview
The interview involved a phone screening with a recruiter then an executive. There was a technical assessment that was labeled for the controller position that I wasn't applying for, but I still took it anyway. The third part involved a zoom meeting with the lead member across the pond. Followed by a cancelled/delayed onsite session and another follow up zoom interview with another executive. It took a little more than a month with ongoing issues with the video links which the recruiting coordinators had to re-send. Ultimately, there was no offer because it was then said that the position is being revamped.
