I really appreciated the hiring process at Toggl. It was well-structured, efficient, and thoughtful. It provided a great opportunity to showcase my skills while also assessing if the company was the right fit for me. The HR team was very responsive, keeping me updated almost every week, so there were no prolonged waiting periods or uncertainty.
My hiring process took approximately two months and involved multiple stages:
- Automated test: This also included some open-ended questions, and you immediately receive an overall score along with a pass/no-pass decision for the next round.
- Asynchronous screening: Answering a few cultural and behavioral questions on camera through their system.
- Home assignment: I had one week to submit the task, but unlike other home assignments, this one was timed. Once you open the brief, you only have 2 hours to complete and submit it, ensuring no extra time is spent. The task involved identifying, prioritizing, and solving a problem within their product, and you must record and submit your solution within the given timeframe.
- Technical interview with the Design Lead and PM: This stage included behavioral and technical questions, particularly about collaboration and communication, as well as a discussion on my home assignment proposals.
- Test week: A paid test week working on real design challenges within the company alongside potential team members, culminating in a final presentation.
- Job offer
Thanks to the multiple stages and the level of involvement, I gained a clear reinforcement about why I wanted to work in Toggl and I happily accepted the offer.
