I applied online. I interviewed at Guidepoint (London, England) in Nov 2024
Interview
There were three interviews: an initial screening with HR, a second interview with an Associate Vice President, and a third interview with an Associate Vice President and a Senior Vice President. Next round was supposed to be a task and a final interview.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Guidepoint (New York, NY) in June 2025
Interview
The interview process was structured and moved quickly - initial recruiter screen, video call with the hiring manager and a team member, two mock client calls with the hiring manager and a final in-person interview that also included the team lead. The recruiter was communicative and helpful throughout.
There was a noticeable lack of consistency between leaders regarding role expectations (e.g., differing answers about team event participation and success metrics). I wasn’t given a promised office tour or the chance to meet cross-functional teams I’d work closely with, which raised some concerns about transparency and collaboration.
Everyone I met was professionally polite, though the overall vibe during both the video and final in-person round felt a bit flat and disengaged. I appreciated the honesty about the role being demanding and performance-driven, but left feeling unsure about the culture and leadership cohesion. Ultimately received a generic rejection after final rounds, which left the experience feeling impersonal.
It was an online process, interview about myself, explain my experience, future plans and say what i knew about the company, and why i was interested in the role and to work with them
