I applied online. I interviewed at Polished Geek in Jun 2024
Interview
Before meeting anyone at the company was asked to complete a 3+ hr skills assessment that consisted of several one-way on-camera interview questions. Doing a lengthy skills assessment before meeting a candidate is always a red flag for me and shows the company values their time over mine. It is also not a fair representation of skills for a relationship building role that the candidate not interact with another person.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Polished Geek in Jul 2022
Interview
It's a 5 stage process that involved multiple demonstrations and panel interviews. I found that the process was defined at a very high level and wasn't executed very well when it came down to specific steps. Specifically there was too much left up to interpretation for the interviewee. The final step is a teaching of "any" platform but it was highly expressed which one they wanted to see. That just happened to be the one that everyone was an expert on so it ended up being less about the ability to teach and more about knowledge base.
Overall I wish that the process was more streamlined and the fat removed but the people were nice enough.
