I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Anaplan (Singapore) in Apr 2022
Interview
The entire interview took around 3 weeks which involved hiring manager, cross functional leader, panel presentation and final MD interview before having the package discussion with HR. The process was smooth and the coordinator would specify who will be the next interviewers in the email. The panel interview was not easy, needed much preparation.

Question 1
Describe a bad work situation, and how you solved it.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Anaplan (Düsseldorf) in Aug 2025
Interview
I was contacted by the recruiter with an appropriate and enticing message, so I agreed to a first call. After the call, we decided to continue the process and a call was set with global divisional manager. In total I spoke with 6 people, all of which I would be working with should I join. While some people might be put off by this amount of calls, I very much appreciated the calls as I could gauge the people I would be working with. The interviews were more of an open discussion (greatly appreciated) and not following some general pathway. The product/market for this sales position is in a niche market and as I have a good amount of experience in the market, the discussion gravitated to the subject matter. Thus, for the interview difficulty I only put average but that is because I have the industry knowledge - without that knowledge it would have been a very difficult process.
The recruiter (Mark W.) was very proactive - informing about next steps, providing feedback, asking for feedback and so on. I always felt I was in good hands with him and because the process went so smooth, it was one of the reasons I decided to join the company.
