I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Shelf Engine in Oct 2021
Interview
30 min call with some manager and HR person. General questions about my motivation, prior background. They got back to me a week later saying they found someone with more related experience.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Shelf Engine
Interview
Preliminary 30 min phone interview where the interviewer ten min was late. They told me the next interview would be with the hiring manager and non technical. The hiring manager was also late and clearly did not look at my background before firing away technical questions so I would say be prepared for a technical interview regardless of what they say. It seems the company is full of number crunchers and they lack actual domain scientists who are familiar with the system and can help develop ontologies.
