Was contacted by HR for a first interview which went well. Got told that other candidates were already advanced in the process so I was quickly booked for the 2nd interview with the hiring manager on the same day - I had to take a late call UK time as the manager was based out of the US but was fine with that as we were "time pressured". Fast forward to over 3 weeks later, I had still not heard back so I sent an email to HR. No answer. After a few days, I received a basic template email from HR saying that my application had not been selected. No explanation, no apologies for the delay in response, nothing. I replied to the HR person saying that I was disappointed with the experience, and haven't received a reply. Waste of my time, disrespectful and terrible experience.

It was a fairly quick process after an application online I met with the hiring manager via phone and then he came in to meet the team. I would say overall the process seemed positive however the negativity came in terms of the feedback. It’s always very subjective in terms of how to give feedback to a candidate particularly if you’re not giving them a green light. I also find it amusing how quickly companies can assess a candidate in a 90 minute conversation.

Initial phone interview with HR, then 3-4 back-to-back interviews at Asana HQ. After, they asked for the completion of a piece on a given prompt and writing samples. Everyone at Asana is extremely friendly, and I would've had a good experience; however, after asking for the submission of the writing samples and the prompted article, HR did not contact me for weeks after, so I sort of assumed that they'd rejected me. Then, a few weeks later, they emailed me to say that since I did not respond to their emails, they would move on to other candidates and wanted my address for a thank you gift. I scoured my inbox to check for the emails, but never found any, and when I expressed that, there was no reply. I appreciate the gift but would've rather had clearer and more prompt communication with HR. It was great until that last point of the interview process; if email wasn't working, I would've appreciated a phone call. So, I guess the moral of the story is: check in often with HR if they go silent, and don't assume that you're silently rejected. Always get confirmation! :)
