Interview Training is probably the one feedback I have for Asana. Given the active participation on here and the background experience of the Asanas, I expected a better dialogue in our interview meetings. The experience was great up to the day of onsite. I can say that Asanas have clearly figured out what they're about (Mission) and how they want to do it (Vision). They are in the process of figuring out who they are. Given the background of the people I met I thought the experience could've been better. Although they do ask for permission if writing notes on laptop is okay, I though the constant typing and reliance on the computer was a lackluster. It went from dialogue to Q&A type of setting. There wasn't really a deep conversation, just answer and they'll listen and type away. Eye contact was minimal and though I wasn't sure if they were chatting with someone via Slack or really writing all those notes from their listening skills. That's not engaging at all. Every one of them did the same. To add to it, they asked very similar questions so they wasn't much opportunity for discovery even though I met with a lot of people. By the 5th person, I think I became mechanical and exhausted of the same questions. This is a great company -- i feel it. They want to do good. They got the process down for sure but the skills (soft skills) is what's probably needs more developing. This is an organization to keep an eye out on because they're slowly nailing everything down.

Everyone I met was lovely and the interviews were structured as more conversational, which was a plus. My only critique is having someone do 5 interviews and then sending a generic two sentence rejection email was a slap in the face. It was something the interviewers and I discussed in my interview about sending more personalized rejection interviews and the importance of candidate experience, and that is how they reject people? It left a really sour taste in my mouth - will never even attempt to interview here again & don't recommend to others.
