Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso DoorDash nel mese di feb 2023
Colloquio
It took a duration of four weeks to receive a response on my application. Following this, I participated in three rounds of interviews. Subsequently, I submitted an assignment case study and received a response one week later stating that my submission was commendable. However, the company already had a candidate in the final round of consideration, and I would be informed if that candidate became unavailable for the final interview. After waiting an additional two weeks, I sent a follow-up email regarding my application, only to be informed that the position had already been filled. However, I discovered that there was another similar position available in which I expressed my interest. The recruiter informed me that I would need to undergo three more rounds of interviews, to which I responded positively, indicating my willingness to proceed. Despite this exchange, I sent a follow-up email to the recruiter to inquire about any updates, and was informed that the company had decided to put the hiring process on hold for that particular position. In summary, this entire process has been both frustrating and disheartening for a candidate who has aspirations and has invested time and effort in completing the tasks assigned by the company. Doordash's handling of the situation has been highly unsatisfactory.
The recruiter call was only about 10 minutes and then they send you a take-home assignment that has to be completed within 2 days. The frustrating part is you don’t even get the opportunity to present or explain your work. It feels like you either automatically move on or get auto-rejected based on a deck submission alone.
I spent over 10 hours analyzing the dataset, building recommendations backed by the data, and putting together a thoughtful presentation, only to receive a rejection with no feedback.
The process honestly feels unclear because nobody really explains what they are actually looking for. For the amount of work required, it didn’t feel worth the time investment.
It’s frustrating because these assignments can take a huge amount of unpaid work, and from the candidate side it can feel like your analysis either gets instantly discarded or your ideas are simply taken without any discussion.
Also, a lot of this type of analytics and recommendation work is already starting to be heavily impacted by AI. It’s hard to justify investing this much unpaid effort into a role when companies are actively looking for ways to automate and reduce these positions over time.
If a company treats candidates this way during recruitment, it doesn’t exactly make you excited about potentially working there either.

Great interview process that moved fast. I had a call with the hiring manager followed by a take home assessment and a few chats with people on the team. Everyone was super friendly and I'm so excited to work here!
three rounds. One is on behavior, and the other is more like a case. Then the last one is with the director and/or manager, depending on the team. More of asking to see if they want you
