I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Addepar in Oct 2025
Interview
Really bad interview process. Had a recruiter screen (that I thought went well), recruiter informed me that I was going to be emailed a link for a technical test afterward and that she would be scheduling my next round shortly after. Instead I heard nothing from them for over 2 weeks, I literally had to remind them after 2 weeks that I'm still waiting to hear back and that I completed the technical assessment. Only then after a couple days did they say I was not moving forward. Made no sense to me, overall bad experience from their end.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Addepar in Feb 2023
Interview
Utterly disorganized and underwhelming experience. (i) Screening call w/ Sr. Recruiter, whom referred to me by the incorrect name (they confused my name with my current employers name!) which was enough to put me on alert.
(ii) Communication & Culture - conducted by jr. member of the team who radiated an aura of utter arrogance; typical Ivy League material. Asked questions with no relevance to the agenda of the call. Made no effort to hide the fact he was multi-tasking w/ the day job; I give you my time, you can at least give me your concentration.
(iii) Virtual Onsite - ‘Finance’, ‘Communication’, and ‘Technical’ interviews were well organized and insightful; I came away having learnt from each topic. The Case Study was a disaster - blank, glum, uninterested, vacant stares by all (bar one) interviewers; no constructive feedback.
Interview process was a success, in that it efficiently helped me identify an incomprehensible mismatch on my culture expectations vs. Addepar. Feedback promised within 2 business days, and we’re 2wks past due - officially ghosted.
I am truly sorry to hear the interview process was subpar. We are committed to improving. Please feel free to reach out to me directly eric.berg@addepar.com
Had applied through a referral. Got a screening call with the recruiter.
The second round was a technical coding round.
The third round was a communication round.
The fourth round was a product simulation round. I was a bit disappointed with this one. It seemed like the interviewer did not care much. Their product is proprietary, yet she was asking me questions like "where do I click next..."
Was rejected after this round.
I applied online. I interviewed at Addepar (New York, NY)
Interview
I had a really positive experience during the interview process. The interviewers were genuinely friendly and engaging, and the interviews felt more like relaxed conversations than formal interrogations. This conversational approach allowed me to get an authentic sense of the company’s culture, values, and work environment. It was clear that they prioritize a collaborative and open atmosphere where team dynamics matter.
