I applied online. I interviewed at Cricut (Salt Lake City, UT) in Jan 2019
Interview
You sign an NDA, they send ahead info about company culture and mission. My interview process was long and dragged out, I interviewed for months. The first was virtual with who would have been at the time my direct supervisor. I then interviewed in person with another 6-7 people in the course of a few months. After my last interview, with the person that would actually be the supervisor for it I was told I did not get the job. But only after I called a few times to find out what the status was. A couple of things that were red flags to me: the CEO doesn't have an office, he'll just pop in and work from anywhere. Another question I asked them is, on a company that the majority of their client base is female, how many women are in leadership positions (this stumped the interviewer, a woman, who told me 50%, but that was including anyone with a title manager) the answer was actually none. No women in C level positions at the time I interviewed. Overall the people were extremely friendly and nice, the interview process was exciting and invigorating, I enjoyed the conversations I had with everyone. But I was not sad about not getting the job.

Question 1
Nothing out of the ordinary. A lot of questions on process, a LOT of questions of the "how do you deal with a system in chaos" kind.

Interview
Pros:
• The interviewers themselves were engaged and asked thoughtful questions.
• The process gave good insight into the company’s priorities and culture.
• I appreciated the chance to speak with the hiring manager and an executive.
Cons:
• After three rounds of interviews—including time with senior leadership—I never heard back, even after following up.
• Miscommunication from hiring manager and recruiters on what next steps where and what to expect. My second interview was completely different from what was described.
• Lack of communication left me feeling undervalued as a candidate. Even a short note would have closed the loop.
• The experience raised concerns about how the company treats people outside of the hiring process.
Advice to Management:
If a candidate invests multiple hours in interviews, provide closure—whether or not you move forward. A brief, respectful update goes a long way toward protecting your employer brand and candidate experience.

Question 1
What's a feature you've worked on that didn't turn out to be a success?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cricut
Interview
The interview was easy to schedule and to the point. Fast screening call from HR and went directly to the hiring manager.
At the middle of interview we realized that wasn't a good fit for me and we agreed to stop it.

Q - Explain me about your actual role & responsibilities.
I applied online. I interviewed at Cricut in Oct 2020
Interview
Initial phone screen with recruiter and then video call with the hiring manager. All seemed to go well, but when reaching out for follow up, was completely ghosted. I expect more from this company, but no one returned my inquiries as to next steps or follow up. It's unfortunate for a company that makes such a great product to be so unresponsive.

Question 1
What types of "maker" activities do you enjoy?
I think they wanted to know if you use their product.
