This was one of the most frustrating and unprofessional hiring experiences I’ve ever had. I was asked to complete an online assessment that started off reasonably with logic and personality-based questions. But then, out of nowhere, the test shifted almost entirely to questions about Data Ocean, a tool that was never once mentioned in the job description or any communication beforehand. This wasn’t just a poorly designed assessment. It was a bait-and-switch, plain and simple. There weren’t even help-desk/IT questions on the assessment! If experience with Data Ocean was a requirement for the role, that should’ve been made crystal clear from the start. Instead, they set candidates up to fail by blindsiding them with irrelevant content. Unsurprisingly, I scored well on everything except the Data Ocean section. Which, again, I’ve never used. The fact that this tool made up most of the assessment is absurd and shows a complete lack of respect for any applicants' time. After completing the assessment, I was then contacted 2 weeks later. Asking me to record a video introducing myself. They didn’t even have the decency to extend me an in-person interview. Even a zoom call would have been better than that crap. The sheer laziness of Teal speaks volumes of their unprofessionalism. Overall, this entire process felt like a careless, disorganized mess. It makes me seriously question the internal standards of this company. If this is how they handle hiring, I can’t imagine how chaotic things must be on the inside. I’m considering it a bullet dodged.
