I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zoox (Foster City, CA)
Interview
I was contacted by the recruiter to have a 30 mins phone screen. Most of the questions were standard more of an intro. The recruiter said that will provide an update but never heard back. Suggestion: if you waste someone’s 30 mins make sure to send that rejection template as an update instead of ghosting candidates.

Interview
I applied to a role and then was pivoted to another by the recruiting team. I interviewed with a few different people and was then ghosted. No follow up, no care for candidate experience. As someone in recruiting myself, I was relieved to see this early and not continue in process.
Follow up is really important - whether that follow up is a yes, no, or no update yet.
The team is very involved and offers a great candidate experience. They are really knowledgeable about the company and offer great compensation packages. Overall, I think offering both remote and in person interviews was a nice touch to my interview experience.
