Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Hopper nel mese di feb 2024
Colloquio
The company’s pitch is “We started as the app for millennials and gen-z. Now we are so much more!” It's already a bad sign when their corporate pitch generalizes based on age/generation. Plus they were not transparent on salary — did not directly provide a range; just a minimum. They are ignorant or evading salary disclosure laws.
Interview with hiring manager was crappy. They went straight into “How would you solve our problem?”. Not even a normal ice-breaker with self-introductions. It was just immediately “Here's our problem. Now you solve it for me.” They didn’t even bother to hide the fact that they are FARMING candidates for free ideas and free work. Finally, their style very cold, arrogant, and mean. I just recently saw BEEF on Netflix. This interviewer acted exactly like the main character. If that's the kind of person that I will be working for, then NO THANK YOU.

What would you ask your colleagues on day 1 to help solve this problem? Assume that nothing has been built at all.
Be careful about applying to Hopper. They will take you through many rounds of ambiguous, average difficulty, and uncoordinated interviews - only to drop you along the way for candidates further along the process. (Yes, the multiple rounds and 'loop' is designed to put multiple candidates through the process, you won't know how many, and they will drop you as soon as somebody reaches first).
100% remote company - therefore low accountability. Be warned.

The interviewer had no experience interviewing candidates. They were disorganized, but worse, once over there was zero communication. I reached out a few times afterward and congratulated myself on dodging a bullet.

Recruiter call, followed by a take home assessment that took a day, hiring manager screen, a loop (45 minutes each with Design, Engineering, Business, and Product), a bar raiser (with a VP).

How would you think about adding a coverage for lost or damaged bag?
