I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Unity (Brighton, England) in Mar 2016
Interview
The team lead contacted me to discuss the possibility of me doing some freelance work. The lead then told me that they were hiring somebody with my skills for a full-time position, and encouraged me to apply. I had a phone interview and an on-site interview, and I spent half a day in a training session with the team to get to know them. Finally, I had a meeting to discuss salary and confirm my acceptance of the offer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Unity (Brighton, England)
Interview
Standard interview process asking questions about my background and why I'd like to become a technical writer. They looked for experience/explanation in your writing skills so definitely something to consider if you're coming from more of the technical side like myself.
I applied online. I interviewed at Unity (Montreal, QC)
Interview
Very friendly and transparent interview process. Coordinators were active & engaged. Went through all rounds of interviewing (3-4) including pre-screen, phone call, technical evaluation, technical interview 2, and team review.

Question 1
Great questions, particularly keen on looking at soft-skills and interpersonal capabilities.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Unity (Vancouver, BC) in Nov 2021
Interview
I had a great experience applying to Unity. The recruiters I worked with were communicative, transparent, and very friendly. They kept me updated every step of the process and always answered my emails right away.
The interview process itself was difficult. After the initial phone screen with the recruiter, I had a short zoom call with the hiring manager. I was then sent an assignment to complete at home (around 2 hours), met with 3 different groups of people (other writers, project managers, and the hiring manager again), and had my reference checked (2 managerial references and 2 colleague references). Overall it took around 7 weeks from me to receive my offer after the initial call with the recruiter.
While the process was long and difficult, everyone I met and talked with was lovely. The panel interviews were more like a casual conversation and I felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. It was clear that they all enjoyed working at Unity and they made the work culture and environment sound really appealing and exciting.
