Overall questions about Anthropic mission and research
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'altra fonte. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Anthropic (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di nov 2025
Colloquio
I recently completed a lengthy interview process for a role at the company and walked away with mixed feelings. On the surface, everything seemed extremely positive — the hiring manager was warm, engaging, and the conversation flowed naturally. I left the interview with the strong impression that things had gone well.
That’s why I was genuinely surprised to receive a rejection with no explanation. For a process that felt so encouraging and affirming, the abrupt ending and lack of transparency felt inconsistent with the experience I had during the conversation.
After reading other reviews (including the recent one from an SDR candidate), I have to agree that there is a certain “exclusive” or somewhat snobby energy surrounding the company. The interview process itself, while friendly, felt a bit aimless at times — which makes you question whether that reflects what the internal environment is like.
Overall, my experience wasn’t negative in terms of interaction, but the disconnect between the tone of the interview and the final outcome — paired with the absence of feedback — left me with reservations about the company’s culture and communication style.

The interview questions were scripted. Typical template style.
