I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Semrush in Dec 2024
Interview
The interview process consisted of around 5–6 steps and stretched over two months. Their responses were quite slow throughout. I was asked to complete a case study and also had meetings with the team, but in the end they decided not to move forward.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a complicated situation you worked on with a client in the past, and how did you resolve it?
Dear Sender,
Thank you for the review, and sorry for making you wait for the answers. Sometimes we just need a bit more time to discuss everything internally.
Yours, the Semrush Team
Long process but they were transparent from the beginning. Recruiter communicated steps clearly in the first interview and shared expectations. I received feedback after the interview promptly. Conducted in a professional manner.

Question 1
What marketing budgets did you manage in the past?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Semrush (Prag) in Aug 2025
Interview
It was mostly good. Short chat with HR, then technical part and final meet with the team. The only concern is after each stage I often had to follow up myself, and after the final interview it took 11 working days before I received an update. This long silence left me feeling overlooked and somewhat disrespected.
I’d also like to mention that during my initial talk with HR, another position with a similar skill set but different responsibilities was discussed. I made it clear that while it was less desirable, I would still consider applying if I wasn’t selected for my preferred role.
However, HR showed no interest in pursuing this, and with no feedback, I was left uncertain whether I was simply forgotten. Checking the website later, I saw that the position is still open - Site Reliability Engineer (SRE Team).

Dear Sender,
Thank you for the review, and sorry for the delay in our reply. Sometimes things move quickly, and we need a bit more time for internal discussions.
Yours. the Semrush Team
