Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Ancestry nel mese di mag 2012
Colloquio
Had several 1:1 phone conversations followed by 2 phone conversations in one day. Pretty easy but several interviewers seem unprepared. "I have read your resume and have it here...please take me through your background." Huh? It's not just these guys, a lot of unprepared interviewers take this approach. I didn't believe for one second the interviewer had read my resume. "Have you ever overseen the creation of a television commercial?" Uh, read. Like 50 of them. The answer is starting at you. Next question?

I had 3 interviews for two separate positions in the same department. I’d assume six interviews should pretty promising for a candidate… then they closed both positions. I know someone else that had the same thing happen to them for a different department.

Pretty standard interview questions. Although they did get way more granular about my experience with the systems they use. I had experience with Tableau and Salesforce marketing cloud which are the two main ones they were concerned about.

I’m a 15 year+ veteran who interviewed for a senior role. As a consumer and customer, I love Ancestry! But the experience was one of the most manipulative and obscure experiences I’ve ever had. I do think their CMO is a nut job! I saw he recently left so that is encouraging and I hope they can find someone who has a higher moral compass and a high degree of professionalism.

We have all faults- not business- but personal. Tell me about your personal issues. (Creepy!)

Colloquio
I applied in mid October (10/11) and heard back from the Recruiting team at the beginning of November (11/06). I had a phone screen with the recruiter on 11/08 and then another phone interview on 11/09 with the hiring manager. I was scheduled for an in-person interview the following Monday (11/13) with 4 members of the team which lasted three hours.
Overall the experience was extremely pleasant. The recruiting team stuck to their timelines and always gave me timely updates along the way. Also it was such a nice touch that Ancestry gives candidates a welcome gift when they come in for an interview!
