I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at The Good Food Institute India (Mumbai)
Interview
Absolutely ridiculous, and completely wasted my time. Multiple rounds of interviews and making me complete a 15 page assignment (I've got a full time job, mind you), leading me on (every email of theirs to me complimented my skills and knowledge) and then ghosting me with a "hiring freeze". Could have just told me that upfront instead of wasting so much of my time and energy, particularly in the lengthy assignment. Pathetic experience
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The assignment made me write an article, research a company, develop two plans, write personal essays about my career and personal decisions, etc. This involved a significant amount of time spent on research and writing, for which I was not compensated. The interview questions were quite stunted, mediocre, and generic - felt like the questions were pulled off a Google search like "questions to ask a candidate". The interviews were one dimensional, and felt superficial. The interviewers were literally reading the questions of off a screen.
