The recruiting process lacks basic efficiency. I was moved through a full interview cycle for a role requiring "unstructured data" experience despite my resume clearly showing 10+ years of expertise in SaaS, VoIP, and Cloud Systems (Azure/AWS). This was a waste of time for both parties. Furthermore, the feedback provided was entirely subjective and non-technical, focusing on "energy" rather than the technical troubleshooting and account leadership discussed during the interview. Advice to Management: Ensure Directors and Recruiters are aligned on technical prerequisites before inviting candidates to interview. Stop using subjective personality metrics to evaluate highly technical candidates with proven enterprise track records.
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Qumulo in May 2021
Interview
I had a 1st 15 minutes call with recruter. After that I had a 2nd call with the Hiring Manager.
Final stage were 5-6 30minutes calls with the team members and people the CSM works closely.
