I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Whatnot in Apr 2026
Interview
5 rounds of interviews including a case study. For the case, you are given a couple of days to complete it, and if they approve it, you present it to members of the team. After that, there were two principles-based interviews. The whole process took about a month. They made it smooth and were transparent throughout the whole process.

I interviewed at Whatnot (New York, NY)
Interview
Provided no feedback during or after the interview process. Thought it went well but sent and update that I wasnt what they were looking for without further explanation. Dont reccomend at all.
I applied online. I interviewed at Whatnot in Mar 2026
Interview
5 rounds (2 separate presentations where I gave them many business ideas) and 3 references submitted. They then had to pause hiring due to lack of funds. Then they picked another candidate, even though they originally intended to hire a full cohort. I asked for feedback multiple times and they would not respond which is ironic given how many times they stressed that feedback is a key company value. The interviews were pretty average and the recruiter was organized. However, the company felt disorganized in their hiring process and I think the ending was poor form.
