I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NeoTaste (Berlin)
Interview
I had 2 interviews. First interview with the HR and second with QA Analyst (both online). Quick answers and a very detailed rejection email with leads to improve. I didn't feel like just another candidate but my application was taken seriously and people were available to answer my questions.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NeoTaste in Aug 2024
Interview
Applied and got the initial call with HR which went smooth and immediately got scheduled for a call with the co-founder leading product and design. It was a very engaging conversation and we pitched ideas and experiences of what has worked and not in the past.
I immediately got invited for the case study, which was fairly simple and I had it done and sent within 48 hours. and this is where the red flags started to show. I had to chase for over a week to get feedback on when to present, and finally received the invite to present to the CEO and the co-founder.
I have done the presentation without getting a single question, as if the decision was already made before the presentation. Then I receive the feedback the same day saying that everything was perfect and I impressed the leadership team but my ideas were not visionary enough. Then I followed up asking if that was the case then why did I get invited for the presentation from the first place if my ideas are to be judged, and of course never got a reply.
Given that the case study was about NeoTaste and the position is still open, it might be that they are gathering ideas from the candidates.
What started off with a great impression, ended up being a horrible experience. I would not recommend applying there.
