Entrevista
I really enjoyed the interview process at Telgorithm. Tori, the HR manager was very professional and courteous, and the first call was like talking with a friend. She was very welcoming and listed all the steps of the interview process and even let me know that she would be moving onto the next step with the hiring manager.
What I really appreciated was that before each interview, Tori would include a snippet on what type of questions and experiences that I should be prepared for during the upcoming interview. They were very helpful during my preparation and I felt confident leading into each stage of the interview. In addition to the hiring manage, I had a great call with the CEO and the two other team members in the support team. In between there was a take-home assignment with questions related to the type of issues I would help resolve for our customers at Telgorithm.
The response time was quick, and the overall interview process took around 3 weeks from the first call to being offered the role.

I first interviewed with the fractional Head of HR, then the CEO, then the CTO. Each interview was focused on a different part of the role and the questions were open-ended and focused on my experience and how it translated to what they needed.

I had a great experience speaking with the hiring manager, who was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly well-suited for their role. They asked insightful questions and made me feel like the company valued technical expertise and problem-solving skills. The initial steps of the process were well-structured, and I was excited about the opportunity.
Unfortunately, the experience took a turn when I interviewed with the CEO. While his passion for the company and product is evident, he dominated the conversation by talking extensively about the product rather than evaluating my fit for the role. The interview felt more like a one-sided pitch than a meaningful discussion, making it difficult to establish any real connection or demonstrate my value. It became clear that he wasn’t approaching the interview with an objective mindset to assess candidates effectively.
Advice to Management:
The interview process would greatly benefit from removing the CEO from candidate evaluations. His role should be to trust the team he has built and allow them to assess talent based on their expertise. If the CEO still wants to be involved, his conversation with candidates should be more structured and focused on culture fit rather than an extended product overview. This change would create a more objective and effective hiring process, ultimately bringing in stronger talent.
