I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Freshworks (New York, NY) in Jul 2019
Interview
I heard Freshworks nurtures its relationship with it's employees and ensures they are happy and thus, productive. However, after having applied to this organization and not hearing from anyone from the recruitment team for over a month, I got in touch with a few people I know in this company. I did have a telephonic interview with a Customer Success Manager who then asked me to wait for the HR to get back to me for scheduling a physical interview. After over a month from then, I did receive a call from the HR team asking me for similar details that I had already shared previously. About month from then, I had received an email from the same HR member mentioning that they are not going forward with my application, without mentioning any reason whatsoever and I got no response even after my request for sharing their reason for not processing my application, over the very same email. To an external, this does portray a negative image about the organization and I suggest the responsible looks into such matters at the earliest. The way we treat people outside the organization says a lot about what we think of ourselves. I'm sharing this feedback with the sole purpose of Freshworks not missing out on any potential employees who are eagerly looking for a platform to shine.

Question 1
Why Freshworks? Elaborate on your experience. What do you understand about the role you are applying for?
not much information - decided to move ahead with another candidate as there was urgency, however they said i was the perfect candidate, abit confusing as I had explained no notice was required. Could be more informative with their feedback.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Freshworks in Dec 2024

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Freshworks in Apr 2024
Interview
I had 2 Rounds of interview along with an assessment test.
The first round was somewhat casual and it went pretty well.
Post which I was informed to create a presentation pitch for with all the product details and it's offerings.
I was given about 5 days time to complete the presentation.
After a thorough research, and spending a lot of time to perfect my pitch and presentation, I was ready for my 2nd round.
During the interview, the hiring manager was not even aware of which round I was in and was confused with what had been informed to me by her colleagues.
It pitched the product, it went well.
And I was informed that they will get back to me shortly.
I waited for a day or two, and the HR got back to me saying that there were no openings in the company as of now, but they told they'll reach out to me if something comes up.
And I still haven't heard back from them since.
