I recently went through the hiring process for a Part-time Analyst position at TNTP, and while I respect the organization’s mission, the experience was frustrating and disappointing. After submitting my hiring exercise, I was told I would hear back within two weeks. However, after three weeks of silence, I had to reach out myself to get an update. Eventually, I received a rejection email, which was a generic form response with no opportunity for feedback. Given the time and effort required for the hiring exercise, it would have been helpful (and more professional) to receive an update without having to follow up myself. Overall, the process felt impersonal, lacked transparency, and left me feeling like my time was not valued. I admire TNTP’s work, but I hope they reconsider how they engage with candidates—especially those investing significant effort in their application process.

After submitting CV and CL, I was asked to do a 30 minute interview, followed by an exercise. The exercise included an analysis of DOE school data and then interpretation that is sent via email.

Pretty Standard - phone interview, data activity (analyzing data), virtual interview with 2 members I did apply for another role and they recommended I apply for another one. (Data Manager - Analyst)
