I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zendesk
Interview
The interview process I went through was an initial application, phone screening, phone interview and an in person interview with four individuals including team member, account executive, sales manager and sales director. The entire process was conversational and pleasant. I felt they were thorough and thoughtful with their questions and also allowed me to ask all questions that were important to me. Each individual was prepared, timely, and friendly.

La entrevista fue buena y fácil, hice un roleplay pero los reclutadores están poco capacitados, no dan seguimiento y hay que estarlos persiguiendo. Lo demás digamos que no está mal, me hubiera gustado que hubiera una mejor relación con los reclutadores
