Calendly Interview Questions

Calendly's interview process is one that all other companies should aspire to as it was impressive from start to finish. Highly communicative about the expectations leading into each interview so I could prepare appropriately, which was especially helpful given how challenging and stressful the current job climate is. They really want you to be set up to succeed which shows. Every person I spoke with helped build excitement in the organization and helped me have a better understanding of how they embody their values as well as what the work environment was like. Be sure to bring good questions! Stages: * Phone Screen * Hiring Manager Call * Take-Home Exercise (which was very relevant to the position and current opportunities!) * Panel (4 interviews spread throughout a day, 30-45 minutes each with different focuses and team members) * (At Mgr's discretion) Additional Hiring Manager Call / Closing * Reference Check / Background Check / Offer They are very thoughtful and intentional with their decision-making process and considerate with how they manage their candidates time. 10/10 Would Recommend!

I had an extremely disappointing interview experience. It is extremely unfair to tell a candidate that, “you would be a great fit” and, “we are really impressed with your skills” only to deny their candidacy for as vague of a reason as, “we decided to up level the position”. What on earth does that even mean? While I understand wanting to be thorough in the interview process and finding the best candidate, making your third round of interviews last 4.5 hours with 5 different employees is excessive. You expect a candidate to spend half of their work day interviewing, but cannot be bothered to make ANY schedule accommodations for those who still work full time? I was most upset because all of my interviews went very well…they even made a point to tell me this! First screening: I was told they were impressed by my skills. Within the same week, I had my second interview with the Hiring Manager. The conversation we had was great and they repeatedly told me I’d be a good fit. The third round MARATHON of interviews (which I had to clear my entire day for) also went very well; it was reaffirmed to me that this position was very very similar to previous roles I’ve had before and that my experience was identical/transferable. When I didn’t hear anything back for over a week, I finally reached out and was given a canned rejection response. I don’t know what more they could possibly want from a candidate. I was extremely disappointed and they got my hopes up for nothing. Don’t bother applying, they will waste your time (and money if you work full time) and won’t even have the decency to send you a rejection letter in a timely manner.

1. Phone screen 2. Video call with the hiring manager 3. At-home assignment to prep for third round of interviews consisting of questions seeking behavioral and technical responses as a means of assessing my managerial and technical aptitude. 3. Video calls with multiple team members from QA and product management, including direct contributors as well as other managers,

Applied through their website, received a rejection email 2 weeks later indicating I did not reside in a location within the United States that is available for the role... but the role is remote and I live in the US (California). Disappointing that recruiters are not reviewing applications with care or doing their due diligence.
