I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at HubSpot (Dublin, Dublin) in Apr 2018
Interview
I completed an online application and was then invited to take part in an automated video interview. This was like a one-sided Skype call. I was recording my answers to 5 questions using my webcam. I was given 30 seconds to read each question, followed by either 30 seconds or a minute to answer (depending on the question).
In total, I spoke for less than 5 minutes. It felt unnatural and distracting to be watching myself on screen as I answered questions. The lack of visual or audio feedback from an interviewer was unnerving. I could see how much time was remaining, the timer turned red for the last few seconds, which added stress and it was difficult to maintain my train of thought.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Name a time you failed and how you learned from it
The interview process was smooth. However, your answers need to align with the STAR method, and they prefere a lot of details. Check the STAR method and try to include as many details as possible in your answers.
HubSpot's interview process was efficient and enjoyable. HR was highly communicative and I never had to question where I stood in the process. I think it only took about two weeks from application to offer.
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HubSpot
Interview
Process: Recruiter Chat, Hiring Manager Chat, Chat with Head of Regional Sales, another recruiter check-in, then dropped out of process due to mismatch in salary expectations.
Great experience though, very transparent throughout, pleasant chats with the team.
