J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez BetterUp
Entretien
An intensive training process done online through a poorly designed interface, followed by a mock coaching session with a random BetterUp coach. This is a company built on the premise that psychological safety and feedback are crucial for organizational success, yet they provide zero feedback or human contact during the training process. They also underpay for a valuable service that requires high skills, and are undercutting the market by taking on coaches who need money desperately. Needless to say, this was a very frustrating experience.
Not quite a question...They have a coaching model they have you learn through an intensive week of training, and then expect you to apply it without any guidance or practice during a mock session with a coach, while that coach is also evaluating you.
We're so sorry to hear that you had a negative experience interviewing with BetterUp. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. We’re taking this feedback and working with the team to improve our process.

Without speaking to a human, I was advanced to a digital training - which I completed, given a betterup email, signed a contract...then it was never countersigned and I never heard back. Never a human voice involved in the whole process.
This is about a lack of an interview that is mind boggling. After waiting for a response to an application for quite a while, virtual initial screenings and a complete training, and being provided a business email, and going through docusign...I never spoke to an actual person. One year later, still no word, no actual interview, no word on next steps. Very confusing.

There was no human interaction in the entire interview process until the test coaching session. There was a lot of unpaid learning required (a small stipend was provided although it hasn't been paid out yet). The learning materials were interesting but I was quite unsure whether this was a real gig.
