I applied online. I interviewed at Samsara (Cincinnati, OH) in Dec 2025
Interview
It started out great, I passed my first 30 minute video interview with the recruiter. The recruiter was a little bit difficult to understand and struggled with English some, but was very nice!
Then came the Hiring Manager interview - which they failed to attend. I’ll start by saying I am surprised and disappointed that a company of this size and reputation could do so poorly with something as simple as doing an interview.
I entered the meeting waiting room 5 minutes early. 5 minutes passed the interview start time I emailed everyone on the email chain to check and see if the interview was still happening. 15 minutes into waiting (half of the duration), I sent another email saying I would be happy to reschedule and exited the meeting about 20 mins in. Nothing.
At 4 AM, yes, 4 in the morning, I get an email from one of the people in the email chain asking if I had issues connecting and that the hiring manager had difficulties connecting too. They asked if I wanted to reschedule. The email was phrased in a way that confirmed they didn’t bother to read my last 2 emails.
I emailed back indicating my willingness to reschedule and thanked them for following up. That was days ago.
Samsara was one of the companies I was really excited about working with. It’s unfortunate how bad the recruiting team fumbled this. Hopefully they can get organized so other candidates don’t have to deal with this.
Just a note this was all remote, but there was no remote US location option

Other Enterprise Implementation Consultant Interview Reviews for Samsara
Five rounds of interviews, including a presentation and a panel "virtual onsite" interview. Early rounds were basic behaviorals. Later rounds got into hypotheticals. Interviewers seemed resistant to discussing company culture.
