Only got to the first level of the interview (30 min Google Meets). The person I interviewed with was not who I expected to meet. On my interview email, I was given the impression that I would meet with one of the recruiting coordinators, but I got to speak with the head of recruiting.

screen call 2 interviews 45 min each 1 exercise and review with 1 interviewer couple follow up convos It was a great experience and all the people I talked to were very passionate about the company.

I applied for the new grad recruiting coordinator position that includes a training program via Linkedin. I received an email back the next day asking me to schedule a phone interview. After the phone interview, I was notified that I would get moved forward by the end of the phone call, and received an email confirmation for the next round of interviews two days after. This second round consisted of two 30-minute interviews. I was asked some behavioral questions but talked mostly about myself and my background. I was not notified by the end of the call if I got moved forward, but received an email a few days after moving me to the last stage. This last stage was the on-site where I went into the office, presented an assignment with someone, and spoke with 3 other people for 30 min each. The whole on-site was 2 hours. The next day, I got another email detailing next steps and had a call with the hiring manager where I was presented with an offer. The whole process moved very fast, and it seemed highly efficient. All of my interviewers were able to answer my questions that were outside of their job scope, so it seems like folks who work here are personally invested in the company and what happens beyond their job scope. My questions were heavily focused on getting to know my background, why I wanted to get into recruiting, and why I wanted to work at Forward. I had a few behavioral/time-management-related questions, but no situational questions relating to recruiting coordination, perhaps because this was a new grad role that didn't require prior experience. Overall, this was a very smooth interview process for me. It seems like this process has improved in its efficiency and responsiveness a lot in these past couple of weeks/months, considering the other negative reviews here. I was pleasantly surprised.
