I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TrendyMinds (Indianapolis, IN) in Aug 2024
Interview
3 different rounds with 3 different groups of employees and HR was responsive about next steps and timing. The process was not too drawn out like a lot of other companies.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at TrendyMinds in Dec 2024
Interview
The interview process started out with a positive experience. I applied for this position and a week later HR reached out to set up an interview. With other companies quickly sending automated rejection emails or never get back/ghosting, this was a pleasant surprise.
I sat through two interviews and everything went well. There was great conversations with genuine people, I learned a lot how your process flowed, and I could see myself working here alongside everyone. However, after the 2nd interview HR fell off and had no communication back to me on next steps. I sent a follow up email and still, nothing. It took 2 weeks after the 2nd interview before I received an email from HR inviting me to a 3rd interview.
From here this continued to head south. Sadly, the email did not include any dates or times nor had any personalization of the position, etc. At this point I am beyond frustrated and I have already lost my interest and attention. The lack of attention to detail left a sour taste and adding to the negative impression of the company. Alas, I followed up giving the benefit of the doubt due to the holidays.
Another 4 days pass and I receive an email from HR. There was that slight glimmer of hope thinking the potential backlog of to-dos on their end. Yet HR stated it was an error on their end sending communication out and I was not moving forward. At this point I feel more embarrassed for you all than myself.
Moving forward I can only hope you all can clear up communication and clarity to those interviewing. I wish you all the best and thank you for the opportunity.

Question 1
Tell me a time you ran into a project that did not go to plan.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at TrendyMinds (Salt Lake City, UT) in Jun 2024
Interview
Very long and drawn-out process, there were four interviews total over two months.
The interviews were a panel of current employees including ones you would be working closely with.
I thought all the questions were well thought out and the people were very nice. I got along well with everyone I met and an offer looked very promising.
After having had my final interview I didn't hear back from the company for over two weeks, so I reached out and asked if there were any updates and I received a generic rejection letter.
I was very disappointed to receive something so automated and inhuman after having spent all that time with the team. It seemed like it went against all the values this company has been preaching.
