Negative - unorganized, unprofessional, and unkind candidate treatment. For as much as Box prides itself on "being the best place to work", you would think the recruiters would treat candidates with at least a little bit of respect. For example, it takes two seconds to sign off a candidate via phone - which Box recruiters don't do (reading the other reviews here). I have been in other interview processes with other Bay Area tech companies where I only get to the first round and a recruiter will personally call me. In this situation, I made it to almost final rounds and got a (clearly copy and pasted template) email from the recruiter who didn't have the decency, time, or respect for me to take the time and call. The questions in the panel were also very unstructured and vague. Got the same questions repeated to me by various stakeholders - clearly none of them were on the same page about what they wanted to discuss with me. All in all - the process felt lazy and disingenuous. Speaks volumes about a culture... have read very similar reviews here so might be a pattern, unfortunately.

Interview process was smooth and professional. Recruiter was communicative and a pleasure to work with. The people interviewing you are the people you are going to work with, which is a green flag. Process consisted of three stages: Stage 1: - Phone screening with recruiter Stage 2: - 1:1 virtual interview with a manager (x2) Stage 3: - 1:1 virtual interview with a manager - 1:1 virtual interview with a current AE - 1 hour in-person presentation to panel Presentation prep was definitely challenging and time-consuming, but overall the interview process was clear in terms of what was expected. You can tell that the people are competent and know what they're doing!
