Applied online and had a phone screen interview with their recruiting manager within a few days. Recruiter was super professional and we had a genuine two-way conversation. We moved to the next steps and setup a video interview with a Director a few days after. Previous to applying I read all the negative interview reviews and took them with a grain of salt. However, after the 1:1 interview the Director, I must say it was the worst interview I've ever had. Its unfortunate because I held the organization with such high esteem and it was a company high on my list as a contributor. Our video interview was scheduled early in the AM. The interviewer had some technical difficulties and was unable to "get the cam to work". Really? Okay no big deal. Interviewer began by offering a polite disclaimer that he was essentially ill prepared for the interview and apologized for the unprofessionalism. I'll save the embarrassment and leave out the details. He also didn't have my CV on hand. During our 30min scheduled chat, he went on for 28 minutes about IAS, the companies expansion into the Canadian market, setting up a Toronto office, and the opportunities as an AM. Perhaps, this could of been concisely summarized into 15 mins? Consequently, the 2 minutes of time remaining left for only 1 question. His answer to my question was patronizing, arrogant and little was left to be desired as a future boss. Hopefully IAS reads this review and takes corrective action.

I applied for the role through recruitment agency. Process was fluent and fast. First stage interview was 30-45 min with hiring manager more like screening and general conversation to see your fit with organisation. Two days after I was invited to meet with Director level manager where we discussed about products and how my skills should benefit company. All questions were about my past experience, how I was dealing with different teams, coping with timelines, building relations with clients, etc. They came back within 2 days with very positive feedback and invited to the third interview with Senior Account Manager who is doing more kind of cultural fit to organisation. Interview went well, all questions were around day to day work, how you cope with deadlines, pressure, targets, etc. And after this I got negative answer without proper feedback which I found very rude. All in all it was positive experience, thought it is a bit odd for 1st and 2nd interview get exceptionally positive feedback and then be rejected by junior person due to cultural fit. If you do not see someone fitting to your organisation for cultural reasons, I believe this should be identified on the first interview.
