Entretien
I went through a three-stage interview process at Betterment: a 30-minute call, a case study, and a 4-hour on-site interview with multiple back-to-back interviews.
While I understand the importance of a thorough hiring process, the experience felt excessive and disorganized. The on-site interview had no breaks—not even time for the bathroom—making it exhausting.
Despite investing over 7 hours into the process, I received a generic two-line rejection email with no feedback. When I followed up for constructive insights, I was completely ghosted. This lack of professionalism and respect for candidates’ time was extremely disappointing.
If your hiring process requires so many people to make a decision, it raises questions about trust in leadership. And if you can’t provide even basic feedback after such an extensive process, it reflects poorly on the company’s culture.

Entretien
Interview process consisted of a 30-minute Zoom screening, followed by a case study, and then an in-person final round at the office. The final stage involved meeting with approximately 7–8 different employees. While everyone was professional, many of the interviews covered the same topics and questions, which made the process feel repetitive.
For an entry-level position that did not require a college degree, the overall process felt unusually lengthy and time-intensive. After completing all stages, I received a generic rejection email with little to no feedback. Shortly afterward, I noticed the position was reposted on LinkedIn.
Overall, the process seemed somewhat disorganized and longer than necessary for the role. Based on conversations and reviews from other candidates, my experience appears to be fairly common.

Very easy, phone and zoom interview followed by case study test and then they bring you into the office to meet the team. It was somewhat of an informal interview but that's to be expected for entry level sales jobs.
