I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at CrowdStrike (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2018
Interview
'ghosting' is a problem and it is NOT ok.
Appreciate the opportunity (30mins scheduled phone call with recruiting hunting to fill the role, with great scheduling communication. Had a warm, bubbly and positive verbal conversation) to learn more about the technical needs of the role and learned bit about the company. Internal Recruiter directly messaged me through LinkedIn each. But did not hear anything afterwards regardless of multiple follow-ups and attempts to stay engaged.
Due to the lack of response, it's a fair assumption that decision to move in another direction by the hiring manager. And certainly respect if someone more qualified entered the picture. Rejections are disappointing but 'ghosting' shows a lack of organizational leadership, structure and empathy.
Displaying common courtesy to let a candidate know where they stand in the process, would have been appreciated and shouldn't be a difficult conversation to circle back.
One day, in my shoes, interviewing for a new, exciting company, that you are not treated in such an unkind manner.

I applied online. I interviewed at CrowdStrike in Dec 2025
Interview
First, HR interview. Then, the technical interview. The interviewers didn't introduce themselves, just 2 people joined the meeting and started the interview. They asked some wrong questions related to technical issues like how to sort an object in Java. It was odd. Finally, I did not have the opportunity to ask them my questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at CrowdStrike (Toronto, ON)
Interview
They had set an initial interview that they cancelled last minute and rescheduled it. Interviewer was ok. They asked typical interview questions: like tell me about yourself, why do u want to leave current job,

Question 1
they also directly asked if I am a citizen, PR or on visa,if so what type of visa which is very un-professioanl and I believe illegal in Canada, u can just ask" Are you legally entitled to work in Canada?", did not hear back from them.
Interviewer considered himself as a brilliant person, but he did not gave this impression at all. Easy question, problem was that interviewer was very pushy to give the solution he was thinking about (or found on the internet) - problem was with the interviewer, not with the interview concept.
