I interviewed at Takumi
The interview process was really straight forward and enjoyable! I had 4 interviews - a screening call with the Head of Talent, an interview with the Finance Manager, an interview with the CFO and then a final call with the Chief People Officer. There was a really quick turnaround on each interview and I was kept fully in the loop in regards to feedback and next steps, at all times. I enjoyed every conversation I had, everyone was really nice, explained what the company does, what their specific roles are and answered any/every question I had.

Jessica was helpful, calming and attentive along the way. She made me feel at home and welcome from the very first conversation, was responsive and communicative at all times. We had a couple primary phone chats until I went to meet 2 key stake holders from the team in person who replicated that warm and welcoming, yet driven and ambitious ethos, which consulted my feelings about Takumi being the right place for me. I then had a presentation which entailed doing a RFP for a project. Following this, I was given the great news that I got the job, which I'm very much looking forward to!

Informative, comfortable . The recruiter had the answers for the most common questions ; so it allowed time for me to ask more in-depth questions about the position. Constant communication and feedback throughout the process . The recruiter was warm, personable and she kept informed which any job seeker would appreciate. The recruiter went above and beyond, and I cannot thank the recruiter enough.

The interview process was smooth and efficient - reflecting the high standards and professionalism of Takumi 😊 Jess (Recruitment & Talent Specialist) was so friendly and knowledgeable, providing clear information about the company culture and expectations for the role. It was a great initial interview, which subsequently led to technical interviews with the engineering team (CTO & Lead Engineer). Each step was brilliantly organised and the communication throughout was clear and prompt. The interview process was friendly and professional, creating a welcoming atmosphere that allowed me to comfortably communicate with the team. This showcases Takumi's commitment to transparency, collaboration and growth ❤️ I highly recommend applying to Takumi for those seeking a supportive, friendly and growth-oriented company culture 😊

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Takumi (New York, NY) in Feb 2023
I went through two interview rounds before receiving an offer. I had the first call with a recruiter and then straight into the final presentation round where I met with my now manager and two c-level execs which made the interview process in total take one week. I don't think that is the norm for Takumi's interviewing process, that was just my personal experience. I only had one day to put together my presentation which is why I described the interview as difficult, but it all ended up working out. Jessica (the recruiter) was super helpful throughout the process. She was very positive, encouraging and answered any question I gave her.

I interviewed at Takumi
Sneaky and shady. They didn't even bother to interview me. I got an email only mere hours before I was set to interview with them, saying that they needed to cancel because they already found someone for the position. Don't even bother applying to this shady company.
- N/A. The interview was cancelled.
