Please clearly state what you think is at the root of each customer’s question. "I need to change my e-mail (login), this site started as a test of Squarespace’s possibilities for a friend, and I transformed it to a full website and now I need to give this account to her, so all I need to do now is to rewrite all info on the site, because she will be the owner of this website. Or maybe I can create a new account, but I need to transfer all the settings and styles to this new account and don`t know how to do it."

Recruiter: Salary Range Written Test: Create a logic jump. Respond to request for swag. Respond to cancellation request. SF Team Members: Previous experience. Outside interests. Manager of Customer Success ( Barcelona ): Type(s) of managerial style(s) you prefer. VP of Customer Success ( Barcelona ): Questions from the VP bordered on "gotcha" questions to what I term "inferiority complex" questions ( i.e., Why would someone with your experience be interested in working at Typeform? ) Not sure if it has anything to do with the recent exit of employees from the company or if that is just the VP's style. My overall experience was that the VP lacks the qualities the company purportedly seeks in candidates: professionalism ( she excused herself before the interview was completed, interrupted responses, curt when asking for clarity on unclear information regarding team makeup ). If you are considering interviewing with this company, I would consider carefully the other reviews for the company, not just my experience.
