I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Retool (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2024
Interview
Phone screen with recruiter, interview with hiring manager, and then "digital onsite" - aka a 4-hour panel of peer interviews.
The recruiting missed my first call, was ten minutes late the the second and then "passed me along with such a strong conviction" after barely listening to anything about my past roles/interest.
Hiring manager has publicly tweeted about incompetent candidate pool when interviewing in the past, but I went in with an open mind. All questions were very negative in their nature: what is your biggest weakness? where do you need to grow? etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Where do you need to grow most in terms of design?
