Recently interviewed at Slack, all rounds went well I was confident I would get an offer but recruiter sent the rejection email! And it was not initiated by me, the recruiter contacted me and when I moved forward with the process I started looking up the interview process/ commonly asked questions etc. and interestingly I saw most people who had experience interviewing with Slack were saying that Slack is not serious in hiring and just wants its presence be felt in the market, and now I see what those ppl meant!
Honestly don’t waste your time with slack, and not to mention their response time is super lengthy 1-2weeks min.
And for me there were 3 recruiters doing the job !! I feel like the recruiters want to keep themselves busy by reaching out to you on LinkedIn but not really need resources.
Some ppl were saying they are looking for Faang ppl only but why are they reaching to non faang !?
Anyone has the same experience?
Or maybe folks from slack can comment if they really need new resources?

    Do you really think they’re wasting their employees’ time like that? Is it possible you did well, but someone else did better?

      OP
      It was not for specific role they said it is multiple roles and levels
      If I didn’t read those comments online from others experience I would have thought maybe it was not a team culture match or specific reason, but reading those comments from other ppl made me share here to see anyone else had same experience

  • I applied internally interviewed with 3 teams. All went well I thought. All rejections. Even though 2/3 said they wanted to move forward. I don’t know seems like hiring at slack is a shit show. Like they lost my paperwork or something. Blessing in disguise I guess because I went to Meta.

    Yeah this is just as BS is the idea that Amazon widely hires to fire. Just people trying to make themselves feel better

    I’ve interviewed for DS at Google and received feedback that my statistics is strong. But Slack said stats feedback was mixed.

    I’m sorry, Slack, you’re not Google — and apparently your interviewers can’t think outside of the narrow box they’ve been given.

  • Companies that pay Bay Area salaries, don't have a lot of openings (e.g. not Google, Facebook), and offer fully remote are super saturated with candidates for each position.

    They can be very, very choosy when it comes candidates. If you didn't get a majority of "strong hire", they can just move on to the next candidate.

    Similar thing happened to me at Stripe. Did well (better than I did with the other companies I got offers for IMO), but didn't get it. Brex was similar. I was confused a bit. Then I realized the only thing different was that both Stripe and Brex allowed fully remote work for that position.
