We are hiring a Senior Product Designer to help design the future of Slack. Designers serve a vital role here: from creating the experience of new features, to the craft and finish of every detail in the product. We appreciate designers who think deeply, speak clearly, love collaboration and feedback, and have a solid collection of animated gifs. Slack has a positive, diverse, and supportive culture — if this sounds like a good fit for you, send us a nice hello, and links to your work and experience.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Slack (Croton-on-Hudson, NY) in Feb 2021
Interview
Sweet and straight to the point. I enjoyed the punctuality as well and the questions being asked. it felt personal. It is not everyday an interview feels natural and less scripted
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Slack in Feb 2020
Interview
I got a phone screen, and after, I waited for a really long time before hearing back from them, maybe 3 weeks, and I got a design challenge. I got the challenge in an inconvenient time and I had to scramble a lot just to get it done. The design challenge was a bit difficult and could be improved in my opinion. But after much stress, I got it done, and in two days I got rejected. It was sad because I love slack and I was excited for the internship but one of those things where I had to pick myself up and keep going
