I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Nextdoor in Mar 2022
Interview
I was ghosted by Nextdoor HR.
After being referred by a current employee, HR scheduled an introductory call, as an initial screening.
I never heard from HR again.
They did not join the scheduled meeting. They did not reply to any emails asking about rescheduling.
Round 1: Recruiter screen, round 2: manager screen, round 3: take-home assignment with virtual presentation to three interviewers that included the hiring manager. Interviewers listened and asked questions throughout the presentations.
HR reached out to a 30 min phone chat. Typical generic behavioral questions, some around their products to get a sense of your interests and familiarity with the product.
Said in the interview that will update if getting to the next round with HM. But they completely ghosted me and never replied to any follow up emails I sent.
Terrible experience and recruiting practice.

Question 1
Generic behavioral questions. Tell me what’s your Pm superpower. Etc
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nextdoor in May 2023
Interview
Had a great interview experience overall. The on-site loop consisted of your standard product loop with very relevant case studies. Very good recruiter experience as well, as everyone was very responsive and very accommodating in setting up interview schedules. Would interview again with them.
