Interview
One of the worst interview process I've had my entire life. Everyone (the team I met with) was extremely unorganized and made me feel like they did not even expect to have me come into the office. No one seemed like they liked their job and I already had bad vibes about it from the start. I never even met a recruiter during the entire process, so I was not aware of the timeline of the entire recruiting process. Even after about 2-3 weeks, no one had informed me what the next steps were. After reaching out, I still did not get a reply. During the entire recruiting process, I felt like I was left in the dark and had no idea what to expect. Even if they had offer me a position now, I would still not take it due to the lack of organization in this company. I'm okay with not receiving an offer, but at least have the common courtesy to tell the candidate that they didn't get it even after the candidate has followed up. All the reviews & interview experiences on Glassdoor about this company was COMPLETELY correct.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kendo (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2022
Interview
Interview process was a 3-stage process. Recruiter/HR, Manager you'll report to, and the Team's Manager. It was all a smooth process. The HR manager was amazing and took the time to make me feel comfortable during the interview process.

I applied online. I interviewed at Kendo in May 2019
Interview
I applied online and was contacted within the same week to schedule a brief phone screening. If the recruiter had the intention of sounding condescending, then I would say she succeeded. Her attitude throughout the whole interview made me rethink working for this company. It's interesting that a recruiter who has no interest in makeup or beauty (as she let me know) would be recruiting for a company in the beauty industry. I’m not writing this review on the basis that I did not receive a call back for an in-person interview but genuinely because this was a negative interaction. I hope their recruiters will learn from this review and improve their interview experience.
