I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Deel in Jun 2026
Interview
The first screening call was pretty straight forward. But the second one was very messy. The interviewer taught that I was a client and was completely zoned out. His focus was not with the interview.
He didn't mention the purpose of the call, didn't talk about the position itself. He said he is going over questions on the screen and there is a scorecard. There wasn't genuine interest, so I felt like I would get rejected afterwards, as there wasn't any mindful listening to what I was saying. He assumed some things instead of clarifying them. He looked bored from the moment he joined the call :D
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Deel (Bergen op Zoom) in Dec 2023
Interview
Ghosted in the process.
After a successful completion of the first round of interviews, I could choose a date and time for the next stage. I provided my preferred date and time, and then got an email that this will be scheduled.
I never received any updates or calendar invites that were promised, and there has been no response to my follow up emails, which makes the whole situation very unprofessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle situations when there is not enough data to make a decision?
7 rounds of interviews, with a case study solving a live problem. Confirmed that I cleared all the rounds, got me to give them 2 references. Then suddenly went quiet, and came back saying they gave the offer to someone who took the role at a more junior position
Phone screening, hiring manager, case interviews. All pretty straight forward with no trick question. Went through CV and experience as well as motivations for the role. Talked about relevant experiences to the role requirements.
