4 round stage
HR manager (admin vetting) -> direct manager -> sales leader -> country leader and colleagues.
Mostly focused around sales process, attitude, and character rather than applied knowledge of Confluent's technology
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Confluent (Bengaluru)
Interview
The HR isn't aware of the hiring process. They shortlist candidates from other domains and expect them to be an expert of their domain. They should stick to hiring only from the competitors or should inform the candidate to be prepared for domain related questions
Brief interview process. Management seems stale. A little undercooked. Needs some seasoning. They seem to miss the mark on the type of questions that they ask and seem very egocentric whenever interviewing.
Process was great. The managers really knew their stuff and asked in depth, thought out questions. Come prepared. Have to do a presentation as well as the 4th round. All in all it was a great process. I really respected the knowledge of the managers, and thought that they did a really good job guiding me.
