Interview
Three Interviews:
30 minutes with HR
60 minutes with Director
60 minutes Hiring Manager
Unprofessional recruitment team. The first interview with HR was scheduled via zoom. When I mentioned to the recruiter that I couldn't see her, she laughed and said 'yeah, I'm not turning that on'. A notice that it was a phone interview would have been nice, but I got past that.
In the initial interview the recruiter could not answer any of my questions. None. It was clear she did not understand the role she was hiring for. I was glad I got to chat with the Director, and that interview was lovely and informative, and professional.
Then, communication from the recruiter was HORRIBLE. I interviewed at the end of Jan with the Director and it went really well. She wanted to get me set up to meet with the hiring manager. I emailed through my availability, as requested, and didn't hear back for a week. After I followed up, I was told they wanted to align other candidates to the same step in the interview process. Ok, no worries.
I have since emailed THREE times to see where the process is at, and to ask if I am still being considered, each time with no response. It's now been a month and a half. I feel like I've been completely left hanging.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Splunk (San Jose, CA) in Jan 2025
Interview
Obvious ageism. Interview with the recruiter. One interview with a team member. Although extremely qualified for the role, the one person that interviewed me had an obvious bias due to my age. No communication through the process. Received a form rejection letter, couldn't even be bothered to call.
If the interview process is any indication of how it is to work here then RUN. At first, the recruiter was responsive but then he literally ghosted me and seemed to not know what was going on. He tried to schedule me with the same manager 2 times and didn't realize that I already had an interview that he set up. He constantly made promises to give me a call unprovoked I might add and never called when he said he would. I was expecting the end-to-end timeline from start to finish to be about 2 weeks (which he told me) we are currently at 2 months and many ghosted emails. His communication is severely lacking and I have completely lost any interest to work at Splunk no matter how nice the interviewers are.
There were four rounds of interviews. Spoke with a recruiter, hiring manager, engineering manager, and product manager. Interviews were easy. Just make sure you know what the job is entailed and how your background fits the job description.
