I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Flexport (New York, NY)
Interview
Started with a basic phone conversation. Moved on to a 4 hour long interview via Zoom speaking with Sr SDRs and AEs. The people interviewing me basically ensured me the position and spoke to me about how qualified I was and how I'm the perfect fit. Was told I'd hear back in a few days. After 2 weeks, received a generic email that they went with a different candidate. After hours and hours of preparing for this interview and spending hours on the interview itself, you'd think they'd send at least something personal rather than a generic email. Very disrespectful and a waste of time.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Flexport (San Francisco, CA) in Jul 2022
Interview
One call, where they were not kind or open to hearing who I was as a person. It was all about Flexport and getting to the next question. the lady didn't want to have any sort of back and forth. It was almost as if she was reading a script.

Question 1
I don't know exactly what the pay rate would be, but what if it was much lower than that? like 35-45k
I applied online. I interviewed at Flexport (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
Suppose to be a phone screen, interview with HM, then 4 round virtual onsite. The hiring process was a mess. There were two separate recruiters and a recruiting coordinator and none of them kept me in the loop. They gave me zoom link that did not work, HM was unprepared for the interview. Ghosted after interview with HM , even after following up. Grossly incompetent hiring team.
