      Operations Specialist Interview

      Oct 11, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Wise

      Interview

      Totally don't understand what they are asking for in a candidate. Doesn't really pay to be frank about your motivations to join the company. For the first interview, the interviewers mentioned that travelling could be one of the perks of joining the company. Used that for the second interview and nope, didn't get me through. Apparently stating that you like the international exposure of the company doesn't get you throught too.

      Operations Specialist Interview

      Apr 11, 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Singapore
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Singapore) in Mar 2019

      Interview

      There were a total of 3 rounds: First with the team you would work with on a daily basis, second with managers, and third with the Head of Operations. The first 2 rounds were on-site, while the last was a video meeting. The team did a great job setting expectations: Explaining that they will need to write notes on an online form during the interview, each interview’s purpose, the overall process, and follow ups. Arranging for an interview timeslot was also pretty efficient. Applied through their website and received a response the next day for an interview. After each interview, I received a response by the next day (but do give the team at least a few days to a week to respond). After the last round, I received a call from the recruiter on the details of the offer and on-boarding process. The questions cover a wide range of checks: personality, relevant skills, motivation, job and product understanding, work ethic, consistency (in how you present yourself through cover letter, resume, and interviews), etc.

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (Tallinn) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      Applied online, got mail with 4 times available for interview. First one was one on one, without any funny or unusual questions. After 4 days got mail that they are waiting for me for a 2nd interview with team leaders, one of them was by Skype. They asked more personal questions. After that in 3 days got rejection mail. All mails are sent by bot and last one even is no-reply. So you cant even ask any questions to them.
