I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Buenos Aires) in May 2018
Interview
Asked to go to a place to be in front of a pc... you can do at home NO feedback at all even after a promise of feedback. Basically i was in fornt of my own laptop at their office answering questions on a web site, where i do not get any feedback.
I applied online. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Austin, TX) in Jan 2020
Interview
Started with an online application process that broadened into technical coding objectives, length written question responses, and a practical process optimization activity at the end.
They say you can spend as little as 3 hours on the interview, but I found that to be wholly impractical if you were going to achieve good results. I spent about 12 hours on the full process and got a single-line rejection email with zero reasoning, zero thanks.
Their VP process is suspiciously deep into the weeds of engineering management basics—things I expect my first-year managers to know and do. There was very little focus on organizational strategy, cross-organization goal setting, budget & financial planning, or really any activities that are typically the domain of a VP of Engineering.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given a video of some manual unoptimized process that a low-level data entry person was doing, create a process optimization plan, step-by-step, and prove that it is better than the original, and show by how much.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Portland, OR) in June 2018
Interview
This really isn't about an interview. A Crossover affiliated company, ESW, acquired the company I worked for and shut it down, lock, stock and barrel. Since they shut the company down, the healthcare plan was terminated. That means no COBRA. ESW/Crossover did absolutely nothing to communicate to the employees of the acquired company regarding the consequences of their actions. Furthermore, they denied that they had any obligation (moral, legal or otherwise) to inform us of anything since we were "never employees of ESW". Then they dithered in informing the insurance company that they were terminating the plan, so the formal notification of termination came late which meant that those of us who needed insurance on the open market were stuck with missing a month of insurance. Sure, I get it, we weren't employees, but if this is how they treat people, I would run away from this place.

Question 1
They never really interviewed me. Just did an online aptitude test.
