I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2021
Interview
Phone screening with recruiter.
Phone screening with hiring manager.
Loop with 5 communications and cross functional partners.
The loop was clearly rigged against me. The panel already made their selection, wasted my time doing a long assignment and made me go through the process with their mind set up. One of the most humiliating experiences I’ve ever been through and goes against what the company bills itself as. Honestly hilarious how the company values decency, trust and transparency but lacks how to deliver open and honest feedback on an applicant’s experience.
Stay away. Don’t waste your time. Apply at their competitors whom they truly care about and pay better.

Interview
I had a call with HR and then an interview with the hiring manager. After this I had to complete a written task. The final round I believe was a further interview but I didn't get this far.
The team were responsive and provided feedback afterwards when I asked for it.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Pinterest in Apr 2024
Interview
I had a referral for the role, and over 2 months, I did 5 interviews with different individuals and got to the final round. I also did a task which was to write a 1,000 word piece of work. One week after the final interview, I was sent a rejection email with no specific or constructive feedback. I asked for more feedback and didn't get a reply.

Interview
Team is very responsive and well coordinated. I had a great time talking to the team and they each seemed prepared and ready to dive into things. This was virtual so sometimes if the conversation ran over, the next interviewer would pop in.
