I applied online. I interviewed at 6sense (San Andreas, CA) in Mar 2021
Interview
The interview process was very smooth from HR point of view. They were on to it and helped me with each and every process, even after getting selected HR helped through and through.
The interview on the other hand was very lengthy and difficult, it makes sense because the pay is really good and the team hires only them who know there stuff.
