The interview was easy. It was like casual conversation, and that is the problem. They really don't seem to care about skills, they just want people who click with current employees, which is weird. Interviewed with 3 employees, with one surprising conversation in the end. Basically casual conversations with some random questions here and there, and 3 case studies.

I feel they really interview a lot of people, which is frustrating. I just hope they become more selective, and put a clear hiring criteria.
I was very very very interested about this opportunity, but whatever.
3 behaviorial interviews, 1 case
Most behavioral was about your interests and past experience. The case had you decide the most efficient way to get packages from Asia to North America, air, road or boat. The people were really friendly and the office environment was very casual.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Flexport (Atlanta, GA) in Mar 2018
Interview
1. Resume Screening
2. Questionnaire
3. Call with HR
4. Video interview with 3 employees
5. On-site interview
I only got to the fourth step, so I don't have any opinion on the on-site interview. People are very friendly and very willing to help you, but this is more of a role for people who already have relevant experience with the industry. The case study was easy, but there are a lot of industry-specific questions that were very hard for me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked a lot of industry-specific questions so be prepared. 1. How can you reduce shipping rates for clients? 2. What are some of the possibilities of a missing package on the way of getting to the client?
