I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pairwise (Durham, NC) in Mar 2025
Interview
The interview was 2 round (both virtual) - 1 with the hiring manager and 1 with an HR rep. The interviews were scheduled relatively quickly and they were very transparent about follow up and timelines. Emails seemed to be from a template at first, but everyone was quite nice. I applied to multiple positions and those that I did not get interviews for, I also eventually heard back from those that they had gone a different direction.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work here? Tell us about a time that something didn't go as planned and how did you persevere? What are your career goals?
Initial 30 minute phone interview with hiring manager, Associate Director, Data & Systems Engineering. Ghosted with no update nor any response to follow-up e-mail. A brief thank you for your time is apparently too much to ask for these days.
