They were friendly and really only want to find the best fit. They are not looking to hire too fast with the wrong people. They made it clear the work from office is a serious policy and asked me to confirm I would be okay with this.
Thank you for sharing your experience! Notion takes the hiring process seriously and prioritizes finding the right candidates. While working from the office may not be for everyone, we do ensure candidates are aware of our mandatory anchor days. We believe in the magic of in person creativity and collaboration.
Other Account Manager Interview Reviews for Notion Labs
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Notion Labs (Dublin, Dublin) in Apr 2024
Interview
Really poor interview experience!
I have applied to Notion on a number of occasions in recent years as they have consistently been growing & I have heard great things from people working there but their recruitment process is worse than any other company I've applied to.
My most recent experience was that I applied for an Account Manager role 4.5 months ago but did not hear back from them for almost 3 weeks, which personally I feel is too long. I was advised that they would be moving forward with other candidates.
Although I was disappointed, I had no problems with this rejection but I was then approached through LinkedIn about this very same role 4 months later. This seemed very odd considering I had already been knocked back for this same role already & as the recruiter advised that my experience in my current role was what made her feel I could be a fit for this role even though I am not currently in an Account Management role. Although in hindsight my call with the recruiter could have been better, I felt that I had showcased my experience well enough to progress to speaking with the hiring manager but unfortunately that was not the case. I also had to chase the recruiter for this news as she had advised me that she would come back to me within a certain timeframe but had not.
The morale of the story: with Notion's recruitment process keep your expectations low & seek clarification on what they're looking for in the role compared to the job spec
