This interview process was a great way to get to know the Community Advocacy team at GitLab. I interviewed with a recruiter, a senior member of the team, the director of the department, and a project manager. I felt that these conversations were a great way for the team to get to know me, and also for me to learn more about the team. I spent a lot of time reading GitLabs handbook before my interviews. These documents gave me a good idea of if I thought the company would be a good fit for me, and also gave me areas to ask questions and clarify the role and team. I would highly suggest applicants to read as much of the handbook as possible to learn more about how the company and teams work. Below I indicated that the interview happened in Lakewood, CO- In reality, the interview was remote- all of GitLab is remote, but Glassdoor does not have an option to enter remote in that field. The interviews were all held as video calls over Zoom.

The interview process for the role of a Community Advocate is a series of 1:1 video calls with a recruiter, a team-mate, someone that works laterally with the team, and the manager/director. GitLab seemed more committed to allowing me to interview the company for my own needs, rather than the other way around.
