I applied online. I interviewed at Almanac (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Completely agree with previous reviews of Almanac. Very unprofessional in hiring processes. Over enthusiastic when speaking, would ask a question, then mute and look all over the computer screens rather than engaging in our conversation. I wanted to give this company benefit of the doubt after reading their glassdoor reviews. After 2 minutes into the interview, it was obvious they are spot on.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Background, situational questions, etc - doesn't matter as they didn't even listen.
I'm sorry to hear of your experience speaking with us. We're very thankful of the time and energy you set aside to consider Almanac and understand that a feeling of disengagement from your interviewer is not respectful. Oftentimes we are taking notes on a different screen from our camera making eye contact difficult, but that does not excuse the experience you are describing. Please know that we take feedback like this seriously and intend to improve in this area. Wishing you all the best in your next career endeavor. -Emily
I applied online. I interviewed at Almanac (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2020
Interview
The interview process was very standard for a company of this size. I appreciated how quickly the team moved to get me an offer.
I met with every member of the founding team and there was a case study that took a few hours. I thought Adam, Taylor, and Dan were great and took the time to vet if I would be a fit for Almanac's culture.
