Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 4 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Zoom Communications
Colloquio
This is by far the worst experience I've had in my life for interviewing for a company.
Step 1: Call with Recruiter (Intro - 30 mins)
Step 2: Call with Recruiter (Info - 30 mins - I asked for this)
Step 3: Call with Design Manager
Step 4: App Critique
Step 5: Portfolio Presentation to 10 members of the team.
The above entire process took 3 1/2 months. One of the worst experiences is the lack of communication and extreme unprofessionalism on Zoom's part. Every call and assignment, I prepared hours to make sure I showcased the right work. After going through 4 steps, the company went radio silent for a few weeks. Before that, between every round, the communication was prompt, and the follow-ups were fast. They have been dragging their feet and giving excuses hiding behind "internal communications" and "Budgeting approvals" "figuring out next steps".
Zoom ghosted me.
Didn't say yes or no. I would have expected more from this company culture.
If you think a candidate is not a great fit, I suggest the teams at Zoom rip the band-aid instead of dragging your feet without saying yes or no. Make a decision. It's basic decency, and it's the least professional thing you can do when candidates take the time to prep for your interviews.

Really nice chat with the first stage interviewer. She seemed genuinely interested. Typical questions around design process were asked. Was told they would follow up within 24hours but was waiting a week or so. Otherwise fine

Great. Very guided and transparent. Clear communication throughout process and identification of role responsibilities. Open to various questions about company culture and day to day task. Not stressful environment, felt very at ease.

Communication was slow and I had to message them several times to follow up because they left me hanging. Interviewers seemed stress, rude from the start, and didn’t take a genuine interest in me. Probably one of the most insulting interview experiences I’ve ever been through, which is shocking for such an established company. Of course it depends on the department you interview with, but their design org seems to have an unprofessional and cutthroat culture. I would not recommend anyone apply here unless they were desperate.
