      The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Guidewire (Strathroy, ON)

      Interview

      30 mins with recruiter, 30 mins with hiring manager, 45 min technical interview and final interview with senior manager. After all this and after receiving nothing but positive feedback I received an impersonal automated email telling me that I was no longer being considered.

      Interview

      Complete Waste of Time!! There were almost 4-5 rounds of interview and cleared all of them. The HR informed me that they will be sending a offer letter. After few days, I was suddenly given an absurd reason that they felt I am not interested in the job and they therefore cannot proceed with the offer. I am not sure if they were ever going to hire me. And if so, why waste a candidates as well as their own time.

      Cloud Operations Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate

      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Guidewire (Bedford, MA)

      Interview

      Process took over two months. Interviewed with several people, about 4-5 people, and went onsite for a formal interview. The recruiter who originally contacted me quit and I was contacted by an entire new recruiter prior to my onsite interview to explain, HR was going through changes. Red flags, when the recruiter couldn’t get his time zones correct and I waited several minutes before I decided to email the recruiter to ask if we should reschedule. We rescheduled and spoke on the phone that same day to discuss the position and next steps. The onsite interviewer was great, I felt we connected. In fact he reminded me of my manager as an IT intern. Finally, after my onsite interview in Bedford, MA office, I sent a thank you email to the recruiter. Literally, no response from the recruiter. Followed up via email and I managed to schedule a follow up phone call with the recruiter. Again, he couldn’t get his time zones correct. I spent several minutes waiting before emailing the recruiter to reschedule for that same day. We spoke on the phone and he asked how the interview went. I explained how I white boarded and was provided a small technical test. This was a entry level role and the department was willing to teach and allow the person to develop as explained by the recruiter and onsite interviewer. As the phone call progresses the recruiter mentions he was meeting with the hiring team that same day. This is a larger company, so the hiring may be slow, wrong ! This recruiter based in California at the HQ gave me the run around for several weeks. Responding via email to my follow up’s twice and even answering my phone call to explain he hadn’t met with the hiring team. Before reaching out to the recruiter each time I allowed one or two weeks to go by. Most recently, he decided to ignore my email. To be honest, after two weeks I expected I didn’t get the job. Please, have the decency to let me know if I didn’t get the job. Why waste my time by lying and prolonging the process. In the end, I’ve had a horrible experience with this company and their hiring process. Very disorganized and unprofessional. I’m perplexed as why the reviews are so great because they seem to treat their job candidates wrong. Maybe I was just treated wrong. Personally, wouldn’t recommend.
