I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Chan Zuckerberg Initiative in Nov 2020
Interview
Overall my experience was very positive with CZI -- every employee I engaged with was transparent and candid with their feedback both for me as a candidate and in response to questions about the CZI work culture. I was especially impressed with the attention the recruitment team and hiring team paid to the candidate interview experience during COVID-19 shutdowns.
The only bit that was less-than-ideal was the long wait time between my onsite interview and the outcome of the hiring decision. However, the recruiter mitigated even this negative detail with regular communication and updates from the team.

Question 1
Q: Tell me about a time when you disagreed with a leader on a project you were part of, but not directing.
We are so glad to hear that overall you had a positive experience with CZI. Our team is consistently striving to decrease the amount of time the hiring decision takes and will take your feedback back to the team to further our efforts. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us.
