I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Sprout Social in Oct 2020
Interview
Three stages - first with recruiter, second with hiring manager and then presentation with hiring manager and two others. Everyone I encountered was really warm and friendly - definitely painted a great picture of the company. Recruiter communication was brilliant - kept informed throughout. They also provided feedback on why I wasn't selected which I really appreciated and will definitely take on board for future opportunities.

Question 1
Give an example of a time that you didn’t meet a metric
My first screening interview was with a lively, engaged recruiter who asked great questions and made me feel exceptionally welcome and excited about the opportunity. Unfortunately my second interview with the hiring manager was extremely impersonal, to the point where I questioned if the hiring manager on screen was actually AI. They did not take any time to get to know me, read questions off to me rapid-fire like they were being launched from a cannon, and did not ask any follow-up questions nor engage in any conversation. Obviously, I was not selected to move forward nor would I have enjoyed working in such an environment. Please have some humanity in the workforce!
