I had an initial call with a hiring manager and he was great but he mentioned that if I "wanted to leave at 4pm and go to the park" this job wasn't for me. (This was an unprompted comment when I mentioned what their in-office policy was like). He also kept mentioning how "hard" the work was and he has to work at night to get his work done.
I think the product they have is great but the comments are telling of what the company's culture is like.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you worked with a client that had differing priorities
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Navan
Interview
I was invited by an internal recruiter to have a phone screen. At the end of the call, the recruiter said I was "definitely moving on to the next round." I passed on my resume and was told I would hear about next steps in 1-2 business days. Surprise, surprise - I never heard back, even after following up again.
This is a tough job market as it is. Please follow up with your candidates. This has left a really bad taste in my mouth when it comes to using Navan as a client in the future.

Question 1
How many people do you currently manage on your customer success team?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Navan (London, England) in June 2024
Interview
Internal recruiter screening call first and then two seperate interviews with management. All went well and then I was ghosted no feedback. I saw online that both managers left the company shortly afterwards so maybe they were trying to do me a favour.
