The interview process was smooth and well structured. The interviewers were very friendly and the candidate experience team were fantastic as they give immediate feedback despite the time differences. I loved the experience even though i did not get an offer.
The process took 3 days. I interviewed at GitLab (Berlin)
Interview
I’m an experienced sourced and recruiter, with years of experience in major tech companies.
My company is going through layoffs, so I was referred for a role at Gitlab by a friend/employee who thought I would be a great fit.
I never got any sort of confirmation email or follow up from anyone whatsoever, except today when I received a generic rejection email... on Christmas Day. What a nice slap in the face. Looks like I dodged a bullet working here. They need a better recruiting team if they reject well qualified referrals... on Christmas. It also goes to show that people here work on Christmas. Yikes.

Thank you for your interest in GitLab! We're sorry to hear you had a negative experience during the application process. Our all-remote team is distributed across 60+ countries, so we all celebrate different holidays. That's why we give everyone the flexibility to choose the holidays and time off that works best for them.
We wish you all the best and hope you'll reconsider GitLab in the future.
