I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks in Mar 2022
Interview
Pretty standard - Call with the recruiter then first interview with Manager, second interview was with a director, and the final was a thirty, sixty, ninety day presentation. I don't think any of the interviews were tough. The manager showed up to our first call five minutes late with no apology or explanation for being late. Didn't seem well prepared for the call. My biggest gripe with the process was the recruiter, they were so unreliable. They never called when they said they would and never hit any of the timelines that they committed to. Huge turn off.

Question 1
Nothing crazy that you haven't heard in any interview process. What's the biggest deal you closed? What's a difficult deal that you closed? All pretty standard stuff.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Databricks (São Paulo, São Paulo) in Dec 2025
Interview
RH inflexível, interrompeu o processo de contratação devido a preconceitos com relação ao currículo, não permitindo, sequer, uma avaliação direta com o candidato. O RH, através de uma verificação superficial das empresas listadas no currículo, deduziu um comportamento erroneamente, que seria facilmente esclarecido numa rápida conversa, mas preferiu eliminar um excelente candidato do processo baseado em conceitos pré definidos.

Question 1
Quelle est la business value de notre entreprise ?
Very poor candidate experience with unnecessary steps. Expect you to interview like you’ve been working there for 1+ years. Prior to interviewing, I was told by other people that the culture was toxic. I got to see this in the SA interview. Being a top performing sales rep is not good enough. Expect to be grilled by the SA asking you to sell their platform to them.

Question 1
Think of a company you sold to and how would you sell Databricks to them.
