      Operations Specialist Interview

      Nov 4, 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tampa, FL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Wise (Tampa, FL) in Oct 2016

      Interview

      I applied online and got a call from a recruiter to come in for an interview in the following days. The call was at 8 pm. I went to the offices and the lady that interviewed me was nice and polite. It was just a bit awkward for different reasons. When I first walked into the building I immediately thought that it wasn't for me. From what I can see, there were a few long tables with back to back computers at a very close proximity. I know this isn't an issue for most people, but I have always worked and had my own personal little area. Then, we went into a room and she started asking me normal interview questions, had the "How are you weird?" question in there, and it was all going well, she seemed nice. Until at the point of the interview where they say that it is a linear organization and there are no managers. So, not really much promotions or things like that. It got awkward for me because I couldn't hide it anymore that it wasn't where I wanted to be or the type of organization I wanted to grow with. I know the people there seemed content, it just wasn't for me

      Operations Specialist Interview

      Apr 11, 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Singapore
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Singapore) in Mar 2019

      Interview

      There were a total of 3 rounds: First with the team you would work with on a daily basis, second with managers, and third with the Head of Operations. The first 2 rounds were on-site, while the last was a video meeting. The team did a great job setting expectations: Explaining that they will need to write notes on an online form during the interview, each interview’s purpose, the overall process, and follow ups. Arranging for an interview timeslot was also pretty efficient. Applied through their website and received a response the next day for an interview. After each interview, I received a response by the next day (but do give the team at least a few days to a week to respond). After the last round, I received a call from the recruiter on the details of the offer and on-boarding process. The questions cover a wide range of checks: personality, relevant skills, motivation, job and product understanding, work ethic, consistency (in how you present yourself through cover letter, resume, and interviews), etc.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Tallinn) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      Applied online, got mail with 4 times available for interview. First one was one on one, without any funny or unusual questions. After 4 days got mail that they are waiting for me for a 2nd interview with team leaders, one of them was by Skype. They asked more personal questions. After that in 3 days got rejection mail. All mails are sent by bot and last one even is no-reply. So you cant even ask any questions to them.
