Entrevista
9 interviews for a position in their offices in London over a period of almost a year. I thought several times to ignore them as I consider it a red flag. However, the person that started the process gave me a good first impression so I continued.
The position was for a role focus on Amazon advertising services. I worked at Amazon Advertising myself and I long experience so the interviews were very easy for me. Someone else may find it a little bit challenging but not hard.
In the end, they offer me a position, but the salary was under what they advertise in the first interview. In addition, they added a Non-competition clause that would not allow me to work in any amazon advertising field for 6 months if I leave the company as well as any other activity that Stackline does.
Although somehow this is legal in the UK I consider that disproportionate taking into account they offer me the position because I would need almost no training and as far as I know they don't have anyone that worked at Amazon Advertising in the company, only related roles.
In addition, they added more clauses such as forcing me to disclose any other business activities and allowing them to force me to stop them. Even not related to Slackline business.
The list continues with 90 days notice period if you want to leave the company. Of course, if they want to fire you they only need to give you 14 days and force you to take any holidays during that period.
All of these clauses had an extremely broad formulation , making them way more extreme than the ones from Amazon which are a little bit crazy.
My sister is an attorney and she was shocked as many of these restrictions are usually created for CEO positions. I proposed to make a change. However, the interviewer leader said that they were the standard in the company for any position, even entry.
My advice is to stay far away and don't waste your time as I did. They seem really nice, however nice people want to create good teams. Not locking them.

Included a phone screen, case study exam and some onsite interviews. The HR team at Stackline did a great job of managing the entire process for me. During the onsite interviews, I was able to meet quite a few people that I'd eventually be working with.

Biggest component was completing the case study, where I was asked to analyze a business category and present the big insights. It was actually really interesting to work on and it seemed like my interviewers enjoyed it.

Had a phone screen with a director / hiring manager. They asked some questions about my background, goals, career plans -- usual stuff. They then explained to me how the company has been growing, and they're building out a bigger team.
Next step was I had to analyze some sample category data and make a PPT and send it back to them for review. It took about 3 hours, but overall was straightforward.
I then took a trip to their office in downtown Seattle, to meet with them and do onsite interviews, which were great.

Lots of questions about specific projects I had worked on my previous roles (e.g., the situation, my role, results, etc.) They focused most of the questions around my being able to take ownership of projects and manage clients, perform analytics, etc.
