HR manager contacted me through LinkedIn, and the process took 4-5 weeks. The first HR interview focused on my background, skills, and motivations for applying to Emlid. The HR representative was very nice and helpful. After passing this interview, I completed a task to assess my skills and received positive feedback within a week. I then had an interview with the team leader, who asked about my background, resume, and goals. After passing that, I was invited to a final interview with the CEO, team leader, and HR, which covered behavioral and technical questions. Overall it was challenging, but I received a positive response within a week. The confusing part was having to repeat my background in every call, but overall, the process was smooth, HR was very supportive and nice!

I was referred directly for the role, and the whole process felt thoughtful and very human. HR reached out and we had an intro call — they were well-prepared, knew the product and domain, and were transparent about what to expect in the position. Then I received a take-home assignment that was genuinely one of the most interesting test tasks I’ve had. After that, I had a call with the team lead with creative, non-standard questions focused on my thinking and approach. Communication was open, respectful, and completely non-toxic. Even though I didn’t get the role initially, the team lead shared a detailed list of resources to help me improve, which was incredibly helpful. About six months later, they reached out again when a better-fit position opened, and after a final meeting with the Head of HR, the Engineering Lead, and the Design Lead, I got a quick and clear offer. Overall, one of the best interview experiences I’ve had.
