I’ve applied for a Sales engineer position and got an immediate rejection mail, without any explanation or feedback. As I had several Linkedin contacts in Pendo - I tried asking for help in order to get some additional feedback and my contact, after talking to HR provided me with this answer: “ I checked with Recruiting and it turns out we are not set up to support a green card hire, which is why the application was rejected”.
There was no mention in the Job description that being a US citizen is a requirement for this position. It seems Pendo HR department is not aware about Anti-discrimination laws in NC. I have been working in US for years, being a Greencard holder, but something like this has never happened to me.

Colloquio
Typical interview process with four rounds of interviews. First with recruiter, second with hiring manager, then technical screen with current SC, finally mock demo with hiring manager and sales leader.
Received no feedback or follow up after the demo portion of interview, assuming I did not get the role.

Would you consider yourself technically focussed or commercially focused?
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 6 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Pendo nel mese di ott 2021
Colloquio
Very disjointed - was just a series of 1-1's with people from various departments.
Little in the way of formal evaluation process (no presentation or technical assignment) - really unclear as to what they were looking for from candidates.
