I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Notion Labs in Feb 2025
Interview
I initially applied for the commercial role here and was already employed. I told them that it was not a good fit at the time. They reached back out to me regarding an ENT position. I had one conversation with the recruiter and then the HM which seemed completely normal, no red flags. I received a note two days later letting me know that they moved on with other candidates. This was not a difficult interview at all but it was a complete waste of time. They are clearly looking for a "specific" type of person at Notion and will smile in your face and not give you concrete feedback afterwards which is unprofessional and NOT an organization that I would want to work for anyways.
Huge waste of time overall. Do not recommend.
I was so excited to get an opportunity to interview with THE notion in Sydney. But gosh is the reality so different from what they portray themselves to be. This place is the epitome of toxic positivity. The teams online "gush" about each other like they are all some weird twisted lover group, but when I met the team in person, they were all extremely stressed out, glum and just didn't seem like they were happy in their jobs at all.
One of the worst interview experiences I've ever had.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Notion Labs (Sydney) in Aug 2025

- Recruiter screen then on to hiring manager call afterwards was a demo call panel and then cross functional interviews followed by values interview which finished with offer. Overall was a smooth and enjoyable process. Great people I connected with.
