I was actually left with a very unpleasant taste on Doordash as a company after interviewing. It started with a phone screen by a recruiter who was super nice and explained the position very well. She sent me a "take home project" to do before the first interview round. I was then in touch with the manager and a current AM in the role for two- 45 minute phone interviews. These seemed to go well as I was moved on to the in-person round. This is where things fell flat. It was three 30 minute interviews that were set up (two in person and one via Zoom conference in the office.) There was rescheduling twice in the process, which I understand happens, but when it came to the day before it was basically completely different people than originally planned. I had to take time off from my current job to interview with one person (in person for 30 minutes) and one person over video conference (which could have been done anywhere) and the director couldn't make the interview at all, and said we would reschedule another phone call with her after. I thought the interviews went will, everything in the interview they mentioned & talked about in the role I had experience with and seemed like a perfect fit. A couple days later, I get a phone call from the recruiter telling me they decided to go in a different direction (wait, what? I didn't even get to interview with the director- whom I was originally supposed to meet with) and it was mainly because of answers on the take home test. The fact that they'd continue to interview me, waste my time and theirs when they had those answers the entire time is very strange to me. Anyone who's done sales or account management could easily have succeeded in this role, so to me it made no sense. The interview process here is too long and drawn out for a startup "tech" company. People usually have another job while interviewing, so expecting someone to take that much time (the take home test took me about 2 hours to complete) is a lot, especially when you don't receive an offer.
