I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TellApart in Jun 2015
Interview
John, the recruiter, is a very pleasant guy, but the interviewer was not at all. The interview started 15 minutes late. Then he asked me to access any computer (this should have been communicated well in advance). He gave me a question to solve. I definitely struggled to solve the question in the first attempt. The interviewer kept himself silent for more than 5 minutes without a word. After a lot of try and error he then said "I want to be honest. You are not in the level of what we are looking for". Very rude and unprofessional. Well this behaviour is very normal from many start-ups, no surprise here. Then he continued and asked me if I want another chance and I said yes. Instead of testing me about specific thing that you know, test me about "how I think", he gave me a text searching problem, I solved it and then he abruptly said "I am almost done here, any questions?".
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at TellApart in Mar 2015
Interview
I had an initial phone call with the recruiter, in which he allocated most of the conversation for me to ask him questions. After that, I had a phone interview with the VP of Engineering (hiring manager). The questions were mostly behavioral.
Even though it didn't work out with TellApart, I was highly impressed with the recruiter. He took the time to give me detailed feedback and seemed genuinely interested in helping me.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at TellApart (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
John is one of the nicest and professional recruiter i have experience working with. Very prompt and very detail oriented. Explained what is expected during the interview process and provided feedback immediately after the interview
Guy who conducted interview was nice and explained problem during phone screening effectively. Though I don't necessarily agree with the way/process they screen candidates during technical phone, but hey its their process and may be its working for them so no complain here
