Meisterlabs: Bewerbungsprozess und Vorstellungsgespräch

Three independent interviews in a comfy setting. From a general chat and get to know each other, to a technical interview and final "how well can we work together" conversation. All communication was fair, respectful and highly professional.

I had the following steps in my process: -Interview with CTO -Interview with CFO -Written case study -Interview with BI Lead -Visit to Vienna offices and day of interviews with Founders, General Counsel, VP Eng. & Principal Engineer, VP of People and Culture, panel session with Data team

Replied to a job advert on a board dedicated to remote work: send a resume with a cover letter. A few days after, I had a conversation with someone from the talent acquisition department asking me about my salary pretensions: I've appreciated it because some companies tell candidates what they can expect half-way through the process or at the end. After agreeing the bracket was fine for me, I had an interview with the same person in order to find out my motivations and if I could be a good fit for the team, then an other technical interview with the same person and the technical manager. Last interview was with team members.

My interview process consisted of 4 separate interviews: 1st Interview - Interview with HR 2nd Interview - Interview with HR & Hiring Manager 3rd Interview - Case Study with Hiring Manager 4th Interview - Interview with Hiring Manager & CCO Overall my interview experience was very positive. Throughout the entire recruitment process the Meister team was very friendly and professional. Expectations regarding the role and salary were set clear from the very beginning. The team was also very approachable and available whenever I reached out to them via e-mail.

1st Interview: HR Team Consisted of a 30min interview with elementary questions to get to know me and my motivations to join Meister. 2nd Interview: HR Team + Sales Director Consisted of a 1 hour interview with personal questions as well as technical questions relating to my past roles. Afterwards we did a sales role play. 3rd Interview: Sales Director + CCO Consisted of a 30min interview with personal questions about my motivations to work in Sales and join the company, and hypothetical questions as to what I would do in my future role. 4th Interview: Meet the Team Consisted of a casual 30 minute conversation to get to know my future team! Overall great experience, very transparent and consistent interview process.

I have a great experience with the interview process. All the steps have been described to me carefully and therefore I knew what to expect. All the people that I encountered where friendly and open. Furthermore, although I got a rejection, a real clear and detailed feedback was provided to me. I really appreciated that.

Interview process was smooth and fast. The entire process from reaching out to the offer took 3 weeks. All interviews including assignment rounds were informed in advance and conducted without delays with sufficient time for preparation.

There were different parts to the interview process. There was a typical HR interview. There was also a data science use case. The interview was pleasant. The use case was interesting.

The interview with the recruiter was nice and easy, everything seemed to be well - my experience, my fit to Meister and so on. The only thing left to iron out was the compensation, as my expectations were a bit higher that what they could offer. The recruiter’d said they would discuss the subject with the hiring manager and came back a week later with the following: ‘’We are looking for someone with even more hands-on experience and expertise in paid social media who really owns the topic’’. This is belittling & simply poor choice of words as my actual hand-on skills were never tested, I was not even given a case study of any sort. Hopefully they will change their ethics and will choose honesty next time.

Very positive, friendly and supportive. Involved writing a trial blog post, for which they reimbursed time, and a friendly and open interview with three members of the team, including senior leadership.
