One day after submitting my application online without an employee referral, I was contacted by an employee at Citymapper by email to schedule an interview. I was interviewed by a member of the City Operations team over Skype. It was obvious that he did not read my application beforehand as he asked questions that were clearly articulated in my application. The interview was quite frustrating because he did not seem interested in knowing more about my and my experience, but mostly focused on asking me questions on how to improve the Citymapper application. It seemed quite unprofessional because no other startup companies would ask you to provide feedback prior to later rounds of interviews. In addition, even though there are some employees who work for Citymapper remotely, he articulated that the position was only open to people with work authorization in the UK and he asked me about my visa situation which I had noted in my application that I did not have a visa to work in the UK and was based elsewhere. It was disappointing because it seemed obvious that they wouldn't have been interested in me if they read my online application completely, but still took the time to interview me in order to get feedback for the Citymapper app.
