I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Datadog (Dublin, Dublin) in Dec 2022
Interview
Its been a few months since my interview with DataDog and although, it didn't lead to an offer (mainly due to timeline differences). I still had a really great experience. My recruiter Victoria was personable, patience and a brilliant communicator. She understood the process or keeping a candidate up to date and clearly outlined the process ahead of me. It is still a company I would love to work for in the future. Speaking to past and current employees as part of the process, everyone clearly works hard and from an outsider's perspective, seem very aligned on where the company stands on values, growth direction etc. Overall, I was very impressed!

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Datadog (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
Extremely fast process, each step followed up by the recruiter asking for feedback & providing next steps. The most streamlined and efficient interviewing process I’ve had yet so far.
Each step provided more clarity and expectation setting to the role.

Standard interview questions: why are you suitable for the position and why is this company interesting to you?
- Interviewer, based in Singapore had her camera off which I thought was both rude and bizarre
- Robotic in nature and made no attempt to be personable or warm
- I could barely hear her or understand her
- asked the most generic interview questions
- at the end of the interview did NOT ask me if I had any questions and kept saying that she has many more people to interview and was basically saying ok you're not going through.
