Fui abordado pelo linkedin e convidado a fazer uma entrevista inicial para um cliente no ramo das finanças. A descrição da vaga era clara e já havia o salário, ponto positivo. Porém depois da entrevista não obtive retorno, mesmo solicitando um.

Recruiter Call • Pretty basic stuff here. Was reached out to via LinkedIN initially Hiring Manager chat • I wasn't really looking, but thought it'd be useful to chat with the HM. Very friendly and answered my questions • Didn't really ask me questions Portfolio Review with Hiring Manager • Presented one project, chatted about process Likely declined due to the inability to speak to a hypothetical ideal UX process, which having worked with a lot of companies never conforms to a documented process Recommend asking to view product to get a sense of the work and have work examples with deeper user research activities. Skill at design is irrelevant.

I had an extremely positive interview process with Upstart. I applied for the Product Design position and throughout the process, was able to speak with members from Engineering, Design, Product, and even one of Upstart’s co-founders, too. I was given a design challenge, but it was specified that this was for a feature that had already shipped, meaning this wasn’t a way to have candidates perform real design work. The team was friendly, open, transparent, and provided me with several ways to follow-up with any questions or concerns that I had. Finally, my recruiter was incredibly friendly, supportive, and was there for me throughout the entire interview process. They always ensured that I felt prepared, had all of the information I needed, and gave me plenty of time to really consider the role and decision to join Upstart. I sincerely believe this was one of the best interview experiences I’ve had.
