First call with the recruiter and the second call with the hiring manager. After spent hours on interview preparation, I never heard back from the company again despite a follow up. You can tell the company’s values are just lip service. They treat candidates as disposable.

Question 1
Tell about a time you had a conflict with stakeholders
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HubSpot in Sep 2025
Interview
After handing in my CV I had a recruiter reaching out for an initial interview. It clearly stated that there is no preparation needed for this round.
Recruiter call was on the phone and quite impersonal with a standard script. The recruiter provided all the basic information you would expect from a call like that so I got a clear picture of the set up, team and company. I was then asked to walk them through a project of mine which came as a surprise, considering the ‘no preparation needed’ statement on the invite.
Overall friendly call but please be more upfront what you’re expecting of candidates during this interview.

The recruiter reached out and we set an initial interview very quickly. It went well. Then, I met the hiring manager. He was very thorough and professional in the interview. The process felt pretty standard and there was especially good communication with the recruiter
