The job description advised they desired six sigma and agile methodologies, but the process was anything but an efficient use of time. First, they asked for a call with a recruiter- this was totally normal and expected. At the end of the call, I was asked to create a 5-minute video describing Lucid's product... ok, sure. Then, I had a panel interview, where I was asked to do a 20-minute presentation on Lucid's product. At this point, I was already getting the sense that Lucid and their hiring process as less-than-human, but being in the midst of a Pandemic and needing work, I trudged on. After a great panel interview and putting quite a bit of work into the presentation, I was expecting the rest of the process to move along at a more respectful pace- but just as you guessed, I could not be more wrong. I was then asked to do another 30-minute presentation on one of Lucid's more technical features, and have another panel interview scheduled for an hour. There was "no end in sight" when it came to these presentations and lengthy interviews. It was at this point, I declined to move forward with the process. It was clear Lucid places very little value on the job-seeker's time. It was also apparent that they had no idea what they were looking for in a candidate if they couldn't deduce if I was a good fit based on my resume, a phone call, a 5-minute video, an hour-long panel interview, and a 15-minute presentation. Be prepared to buckle up for a long ride if you embark on an interview process here.
