I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Zendesk
Interview
Only communication that I received was the canned responses from Jobvite. Was deemed a non-fit within an hour. Either they have an intern or a bot running their talent acquisition.
During my research of the firm, I received more attention from their pre-sales group than their HR.
A company that does not invest and train their HR signifies that there is something more problematic with their leadership.
No offer
Negative experience
Easy interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zendesk (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2014
Interview
Interviewed. Got a call from HR and it was pleasant. The interview with the Hiring manager was immediately scheduled the next few days.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview with the hiring manager was ok except I did not get a sense at all of what she wanted out of the skill set. She focused more on why do you want to work here vs. how can my skillset best help benefit the company and role. Very short explanations by the manager as well in terms of the what the goals of the org. are given the high level positions.
