I applied online. I interviewed at Wise in Aug 2022
Interview
Very bad. They sounded like a cult. Most their questions where on: Why do you want to join us? And you had to answer: "because you're the best company to work for" "your goal is great" blah blah
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They focused more on why you want to join them rather than what can you do for work. It sounded more like a cult.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Wise (Budapest)
Interview
First a test with 2 fake emails in which you have to answer as a customer service representative then interview by zoom with one of the team leaders at the offices in budapest
Online interview with lovely recruiter who set me at ease. More of a conversation that strict interview questions. Really set me at ease and got the most out of me.
The process sounded straight-froward, you pass the initial pre-screening, then you receive a take-home test, after that one would get an online interview (this is a huge upgrade from the previous talk-to-the-screen style they had before).
What's really disappointing & unprofessional, is not providing feedback of the test scores, especially that this is used as a critical factor (so they say) in the hiring process.
It's one of the least transparent hiring processes I've went through in 15 years career!
