Relatively straightforward interview process but the CEO is too involved and has final say on each candidate. Never met CEO, went through multiple meetings with sales leaders, did a discovery presentation, only for the CEO to decide against me after getting approval from everyone else.

My interview with Handshake consisted of a recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, hiring manager peer interview, mock discovery presentation, and a final executive interview. The entire process from start to finish took about 2 weeks and I found every stage to be well-structured and thoughtfully designed to assess my skills, experience, and cultural fit. Everyone I met was friendly, knowledgeable, and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me as a person and a professional - a testament to the company’s culture and values. I especially appreciated the recruiter (Luke Losin) who kept me informed every step of the way, expressed authentic enthusiasm, and truly went above and beyond to ensure I had a positive experience!
