The hiring process at Deel takes an average of 5 days when considering 2 user submitted interviews across all job titles. Candidates applying for Backend Engineer had the quickest hiring process (on average 5 days), whereas Backend Engineer roles had the slowest hiring process (on average 5 days).
The process starts completely online and after uploading my resume and portfolio, they asked for linkedin profile, start date and salary expectations. There are around 10 questions to be answered. The moment I finished and sent my application, after 5 seconds, I received rejection letter saying after careful consideration they decided to move on. It was an automatic letter, they do not review the applications but collect personal data. I reported to LinkedIn , this is a scam.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Deel (Portugal) in Jan 2023
Interview
Primeira entrevista do processo de seleção, não passei para proxima etapa por nao reunir os requisitos que supostamente precisam, acredito deviam ser mais específicos nas entrevistas introdutórias.
Não achei suficientes as questões para saberem se sou uma potencial candidata para vaga,e nem ter a oportunidade de fazer uma avaliação de desempenho.

Por que voce quer trabalhar na Deel ? Descreva seus experiências
This was probably one of the worst interview experiences I've had. I had read some of the reviews on Glassdoor and was already sceptical about the company, but the interview only confirmed this.
First was an initial screening with the talent management team. The person who I had scheduled the call cancelled less than 2 hours before it was supposed to happen, to which I replied immediately with alternative times. After taking some hours to get back to me, we managed to re-schedule the interview for the following week. Once the interview happened the person joined the call 10 minutes late, asked me a few very general questions and then cut the call short without giving me time to ask any questions about the role or the company. We did schedule the next interview with the hiring manager on the call, which I appreciated, but I got the feeling the recruiter didn't really care at all about how good candidate I was and only wanted to put me forward to reach targets.
The call with the hiring manager was better, she was on time and seemed very nice. Asked me some generic questions and gave me a lot of time to ask questions too. Our discussion confirmed the concerns I already had regarding the role and the company. For example, she made it clear that I'd need to available to answer messages all day long and to work extra hours frequently. I think she understood from the questions I asked that this was definitely not the right place for me.
Also, the salary seemed to be incredibly low for the workload they expected for the role and the targets they had. I left the interview wondering how can anyone manage the responsibilities she had mentioned, as it seemed like it would be enough work for 2 or 3 people.
