I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Grove (San Francisco, CA) in Dec 2019
Interview
The interview process was rather redundant and long. I had a screen with the recruiter and spoke to two other people on the phone, each 30 minutes long, before getting to the onsite stage. During the onsite stage, I met with the same folks I had spoken with in a 45 minute interviews and were asked similar questions from our earlier conversations. Part of the interview also involved an assessment test where you schedule based on a panel provided to you.
Overall the process took about 3 weeks and I got the rejection via email without any feedback whatsoever. It was a generic email and when asked for feedback, the recruiter ghosted. Candidate experience doesn't end the moment of rejection and I think that providing personalized feedback by phone would've been better.

How would you describe a good candidate experience during all stages of the company: intake, phone screen, onsite, feedback?
