Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 6 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Zoox
Entrevista
The process was slow moving but not bad, I made it through all virtual screenings, a 5 hour onsite interview (not the best experience but the interviewers themselves were kind and prepared), a live presentation, and two follow up interviews. Then I was ghosted. When I followed up with the recruiter I got a template rejection response. I then followed up with a thank you note asking for any feedback but nothing. The experience as a whole was fine but completely ghosting final candidates after 6 weeks of interviews and presentations is really bad. I was excited about the role but TBH I'm not planning on applying to anything else at Zoox after that experience.

Had an intro call with a recruiter and was told to apply for certain positions I had the right experience for. I immediately received automated nos on all applications from their ATS and no contact from the recruiter. When I contacted the recruiter directly a week later, I was told the HMs thought I wasn't a good fit.

Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Zoox en jun 2024
Entrevista
The process took over two months, 7 interviews, 3 checked references, and an email rejection.
Once I got through the 7 interviews, the recruiter informed me they “rescoped the role” to better fit me as I had interviewed for a senior position and they put me as a junior based on my experience. The recruiter assured me it was because they’re “really” wanted me. I was open, since the opportunity to be at Zoox was exciting to me. At that point, the recruiter informed me that they needed to do three reference checks, to put together “proposal” to the CEO to review. After the recruiter called my three references, we discussed compensation and all the details of an employee contract. Mind you, there was no offer, and the recruiter said this would be needed for the “proposal”. After waiting a week I followed up, to which the recruiter apologized as everyone was on vacation. Then a week later I texted the recruiter to find out what was happening (we had been texting throughout this process). I heard nothing, but saw the exact position freshly posted on LinkedIn. I hoped it was an oversight. However, 24 hours later I received an email saying I had been rejected with very little feedback as to why.
I understand them wanting to find the right person, but it felt like a huge waste of my time and I hope they improve their processes instead of subjecting candidates to this drawn-out experience.
