The interview process consisted of five rounds: the first and second rounds with recruiters, the third with the hiring manager, the fourth with a peer, who delivered a presentation based on a very generic and minimal detail prompt—an aspect they acknowledged only during the presentation. The fifth with the skip level. During this process, no demo license was provided, I suggest getting a paid subscription to access more technical features to make sure you can stand out. Throughout the process, I was informed that the intention was to hire externally due to the team's shortcomings in sales capabilities, necessitating someone to serve as a coach and mentor. Ultimately, I was passed over in favor of an internal candidate from the Philippines, despite the position being advertised for the USA. I was informed that the selected individual was favored due to their presentation of previously developed solutions for existing ClickUp clients. This experience has left me feeling that months of my time were largely wasted, as it seems my candidacy was merely a formality.
