I applied through other source. I interviewed at Zuub in Nov 2024
Interview
The interview process went really well and there were clear next steps through out the process. The timeline and the amount of people I interviewed with were in line with other companies and transparency was always there from both parties.

Question 1
My experience with start ups and if I'm comfortable being the first accounting/finance hire within an organization.
I recently had the opportunity to interview with Zuub for a position I was very excited about, but unfortunately, the experience left me feeling demoralized after two rounds of interviews.
During my first interview, I felt a genuine connection with the team and was enthusiastic about the role. However, I sensed that the founder insinuated I might not be the right fit, which left me feeling uncertain about my chances. The feedback seemed unclear, and I couldn't shake the feeling that the decision had already been made.
When I was invited back for a second interview, I hoped for more clarity and a positive outcome. Unfortunately, I again picked up on cues that suggested they were leaning away from my candidacy. Despite my efforts to showcase my skills and enthusiasm, the overall atmosphere felt discouraging. It was disheartening to invest time and energy into the process, only to feel that the outcome was predetermined.
Overall, interviewing twice at Zuub was a challenging experience. While I appreciate the opportunity, the lack of constructive feedback and the vibes I received left me feeling undervalued as a candidate. I wish the process had been more transparent, as it would have made for a more positive experience.

Question 1
What tools do you use to stay organized and proactive during a busy work day?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Zuub in Jun 2024
Interview
Co-Founder reached out to me for an initial interview, We had a nice chat and he definitely asked me questions about my previous and current roles to see if I would be a good fit for what they are looking for. I never heard back even after multiple attempts to contact him via email, he ghosted me. It would have been much more professional to let me know that they decided to go with another candidate than to ignore my emails. I would urge you to change this for future interviews.
