Colloquio
The People team always contacted me at every opportunity. They always spoke in a very friendly and positive tone.
Every interview I had with my potential teammates and leadership was very relaxed, "real" interviews with consistent expectations for the position.
The atmosphere was always very positive. You can tell they have a very positive, open, and friendly culture and they strive to maintain it that way.

They asked me about my past work experiences. They inquired about my responsibilities and what area I feel most comfortable in. They asked me what I'm generally like working, whether I like working in the office or at home, during the day or at night.
HR Screening call, followed by a hiring manager call that included a case study review. Then a peer case study presentation - yes a second one. At this point I was rejected. Then, the position I applied to was re-opened, and we connected again. I went through another Hiring Manager call, and a final call - thinking this is the one jerry... and sadly I was rejected, for the second time, on information that they had of me from the beginning. Very cruel.

Colloquio
The interview process consisted of six rounds, where I had to present a case study, explain my design process, and answer behavioral questions. While the interviewers were friendly and made the experience positive, the process itself felt repetitive, as I had to reiterate the same information multiple times.
The biggest issue wasn’t the interviews themselves but the lack of transparency and feedback. After completing all six rounds, I saw that the role was reposted on LinkedIn on the same day they informed me of their decision. I was told it came down to me and another candidate, but I wasn’t given specific feedback on why I wasn’t selected or what I could improve.
I fully respect the hiring decision, but after investing time in such an extensive process, I would have expected clearer communication and constructive feedback to help candidates grow. Reducing redundancy in the interviews and improving post-interview feedback would make the process much stronger.

Throughout the six interview rounds, I was asked to present a case study, explain my design process and thinking, and respond to behavioral questions. The interviews covered topics like how I approach problem-solving, collaboration with cross-functional teams, and my experience with UX/UI challenges. There were also discussions about design systems, user research, and balancing business goals with user needs.
While each interviewer had a slightly different focus, many of the questions felt repetitive across multiple rounds, with similar inquiries about my process, case studies, and decision-making.
