I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Slack (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2018
Interview
Reached out by the recruiter and set up phone call. An hour before the call, the recruiter just canceled the meeting and never got back to me. I tried to send out emails several times and just no response. It's ridiculous.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Slack (Sydney) in Oct 2018
Interview
I interviewed for an Account Executive role in Slack. I made it to the first round call with the recruiter. She was very friendly and engaging and I felt wanted to really know about my background and experience.
I wasn't successful moving to the next stage but the recruiter hiring for the role took the time to explain to me where the skill gap was.
Thank you for a positive and enjoyable experience.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Slack (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2018
Interview
Applied online, quickly got contacted by a recruiter to schedule a phone screen; answered a few "technical" questions and passed on to a phone interview with the team lead and manager. Spoke to them on the phone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some specific questions only tangentially related to what was in the job description (i.e. what does the ISO 27002 standard say about encryption at rest); some more big picture conceptual questions about different standards and frameworks
