I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Zendesk (Dublin, Dublin) in Aug 2019
Interview
The process was very good. There was an initial HR phone screening followed then by a 30 min phone call with the hiring manger then 3 follow up 30 min calls with other related people in the department.
Overall it felt very informal and was mostly just a chat through my experience and then the role itself. I get the sense there was lots of emphasis on being the right fit culturally for the company.

Question 1
Straight forward things around my experience and what I could bring to the role etc
many rounds of interviews for the so called cultural fit. their culture is definitely not a healthy one, promoting blame and incompetence.
they are totally in their own world, incompetent, unprofessional and wasting your time. they have no idea of running any programs, instead they pass biased judgements.
management is oblivious to the toxic culture brewing there. also they find suitable to say they hire people from psychology school to work in IT
