I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deel (Paris) in May 2024
Interview
Very basic and standard process: HR screening, Hiring manager call, mock call and final step.
If the whole process was smooth and fast, the last step was an enigma: 15 mintes chat with Head of .. (sales ?) based somewhere very far from my own location. The person did not listen to any of my answers, took the video call half layed down on the couch, welcoming friends at a gathering which was taking place in her living room. Disrespectfull, no relevant questions.
Did not received any feedback after completing the full interview process (4 steps including home preparation).
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Deel (Hongkong) in Jul 2026
Interview
The company reached out to me on LinkedIn and booked me in for an interview. I told them in advance I wasn't considering any junior roles given my experience. The day of the interview the interviewer didn't show up and no explanation was received. The next day another recruiter reached out through LinkedIn letting me know that the role scope has changed. Super unprofessional and disrespectful.
