I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at MongoDB (New York, NY) in Sept 2018
Interview
Every interaction that I had with the recruiters was awesome! They laid out everything that the job would entail in a very straightforward and easy to understand way, and made clear that they were knowledgeable about what makes a good CSM. While the hiring process was a bit long, it showed that they took it extremely seriously; looking for a candidate that would not only fit the role but also the team. Each step of the recruitment process was simply explained so nothing was unexpected.

Question 1
In your eyes, what are some factors that make a good CSM?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at MongoDB
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me back in October. Had various interviews and was a very start/stop process. Original recruiter was fired, one of the team members I interviewed with left the company. No one would explain why or what happened with them. Company would go on hiring freeze and week later, no more freeze. Red flags everywhere. Final round was a presentation round which is a lot of effort for an interview process. They expect you to know their product inside/out during the presentation when this is only an interview. Overall, declined offer as the interview process is indicative of the company and believe I dodged a bullet.
I applied online. I interviewed at MongoDB (Frankfurt am Main)
Interview
Company makes very positive impression and two people I had a pleasure to speak with were highly professional. After speaking with recruiter and team leader unfortunately I never received any feedback about next stage or disqualification, lack of communication at that stage was a bit disappointing.

Question 1
asked mostly about skills and experience, language skills
Process was thorough and organized, there is an interviewee portal used that details where you are in the process, who you've met with, who you're going to meet with, and any reference materials needed to complete each step. Communication was reliable throughout the process.
