Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the most challenging interpersonal conflict you've dealt with and how did you resolve it?
The panel was friendly. I enjoyed talking to every member of the team. The interview process was long though. I wish they had cut me off as soon as they learned that I wasn't a fit.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Samsara in May 2024
Interview
I was really impressed my interviews. From the start, the recruiter explained what they were looking for, why they were hiring for the role and the interview process. The first stage was me speaking to the hiring manager. This was useful to decide if I wanted to proceed with the interviews. The interviews were also scheduled to fit my schedule, and left a break between each (a little thing, but I was glad for this). They shared detailed feedback, that was useful for me, even if I didn't get an offer. There was a bit of a delay getting the final decisions, but the recruiter kept me informed regularly.
