I applied online and had an hourish long phone conversation with the hiring manager, mostly about the recruiting and the tech industry. She invited me for an onsite interview, the final stage in the process. The onsite interview was supposed to last four hours, two of which were going to be spent working on a mystery project that I'd learn about when I got there. The first hour we'd go to lunch and the final hour I'd present my project.

I originally had a call with the internal recruiter. She was super nice and helpful. They sent me an interview link where you would be asked a question and then you had a minute to respond. What was distracting about this process is that you can watch yourself answer the questions, but then also watch the timer count down. To be honest the whole set up really caught me off guard. I am usually very solid in an interview, but this was distracting. Unfortunately, I never heard anything back from anyone. I'm not too surpirsed considering I didn't do well on the video. I do feel that my phone screen was solid and that I would have nailed an in person interview. I think that WillowTree unfortunately will bypass many candidates due to this interview process. It certainly isn't for everyone and very distracting. Advice to WillowTree: at least give people feedback. I think it is highly unprofessional to not receive even a one sentence email saying thanks but no thanks.
