I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gusto (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Interview was pretty quick. First part is the HR phone screen, then panel interview with hiring manager and some other people you'll work with. There's 3rd interview but I didn't moved forward with it. HR provides feedback within 3-4 business days. Based on our discussions, the company seems to embrace AI in all aspects that I felt I wouldn't last long in the job because AI will replace me somehow.
