      Engineer Interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Gusto

      Interview

      Awful, awful, awful. They don't know what they're doing. Each interviewer stares at their computer instead of engaging with you. They also have new hires interviewing who have no idea how to pitch or even talk about the company in a knowledgeable way.

      Engineer Interview

      Oct 9, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gusto (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      Engineer sends an email to talk about the company, redirects to recruiter if we reply back, programming interview with tests online, onsite interview. The communication itself starts giving wrong impression as engineer wants to talk (but its just recruiting trick) ..and those who fall for it ..get to go to their office and loose a whole day . I felt the senior people in the team really worried recruiting anybody who would threaten their job, which also means you might not get to grow if end up there. They are ruby DSL shop .
