When I first started my job search, I reached out to a remarkable member of the People Operations team, introducing myself and expressing my interest in recruiting at HubSpot. They were kind enough to answer my email, and recommended I keep a lookout for Recruiting Coordinator openings. I did just that, and was thrilled when a position opened up a few months later. My interview process consisted of an initial recruiter phone interview, onsite face-to-face interviews (with three members of the team), and a final round writing exercise. Overall my experience was extremely positive! Everyone I encountered was so friendly and welcoming and really helped me picture myself as a HubSpotter. I was extended an offer, excitedly accepted, and am going on my third month of working at the best company I could imagine.

I had a friend who works at Hubspot so I reached out to her about an open position. She connected me to the hiring manager and we set up a phone screen. The phone screen went well and I was then scheduled for a Zoom interview with the team lead for the position, which was scheduled for a week later. I thought it went well. They asked a lot of questions like what has been your biggest challenge this past year, weaknesses, strengths, a lot of typical but weirdly worded questions. They took over a week to get back to me and they just emailed and let me know I did not get the job. They really weren't keeping me updated throughout the process and I sent a thank you email that never got a response. They also ask if you would like feedback from your interview, and to which I did respond and they never gave it to me.
