I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Nextiva (Scottsdale, AZ) in Sep 2015
Interview
HR calls for a pre screen and then you have two interviews and do a role play phone call. The sales managers came in as a pair and read through my resume asking questions. They mostly talked about themselves and how great the company is. Now that I work there, I hear them joke about how they have to lie and will openly read resumes and joke about them. I shouldn't have accepted the job but I just graduated and don't have much experience.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nextiva in Sep 2023
Interview
Talent acquisition team was on top of their game! They were timely with their communication and addressed any questions I had quickly. The entire interview process took about two weeks. It started with a phone interview, then an in-person interview, and finally a mock demo on a virtual call.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Nextiva (Scottsdale, AZ) in Oct 2022
Interview
I was sent a message from a recruiter via LinkedIn who was interested in talking to me. I had some experience in the UCaaS industry with a competitor to Nextiva which is why he reached out to me. After that initial call, I had two video conference interviews with the hiring managers. The questions were really basic and predictable. Both managers asked me the exact same questions, which seemed like a waste of everyone's time. The 2nd guy seemed like he wanted to be anywhere except on this interview and was picking at his nails and not making eye contact for a lot of the interview. I got off the call knowing if they did make an offer I wouldn't accept it. I contemplated emailing the recruiter to withdraw my interest but decided to hold off to see what they said. Thankfully, they didn't make an offer. It seemed like very much a bro-culture, boiler room type of job.
