After 2 lengthy telephone interviews (totally normal and acceptable), they bring you into a mixer type of event to meet other candidates and employees of the company. This was all fine and great, but the next round you advance too is a "group interview". This is where I found the process to be quite disappointing. You re brought in for a multi hour long "interview". They have around 10 of their employees sitting at a table lined up to review the candidates, who are also lined up at a table opposite the employees. Then you are randomly given topics to immediately get up and present your answers to the room with not even 5 minutes of prep time. So you are then presenting in front of not only a fairly large group of people within the company who decide your fate, but at least 10 people with whom you are in competition for the position. Surely this works for some, but the style of pressure placed on candidates seemed extreme considering the role. Additionally, they would often make statements telling you general answers that weren't acceptable to give (i.e. "Don't mention traveling or sports or your education, no one wants to hear about that"). All in all, they gave off an extremely arrogant vibe as a company, especially for being a start-up at the time, and I left the interview process knowing that working for the company would likely be a nightmare. I later found out their entire corporate culture gave off the same vibe and other large companies that would meet with them regarding partnerships were not impressed with their attitude. I've gone on to study more into management behaviors and what creates the best environment for employees and how management plays a very large role in the overall growth and success of a company. Looking back- a lot of red flags from Meltwater.
