The hiring process was very seamless. I was first contacted by a WeWork recruiter to set a date for an over the phone conversation. Once the date was set, the recruiter called me promptly. The conversation was to see my experience and to ensure that my work history lined up with the role I might interview for. After the initial phone conversation, I was setup for an over the phone conversation with the hiring Manager for the following week. After a lengthy phone call with the hiring manager to again discuss the role and what the expectations for the candidate would be, I was set up for an onsite interview/walkthrough for later in the week. The interview/onsite visit went well. Personally, It was great for me as a candidate to see what a day in the role would be like. It was also a great way for me to see where this role would support the other team members. I was then scheduled for a last interview with the team members. This interview was much more conversational and seemed it was geared to ensure that I would mesh well with the existing team. The recruiter reached out to me the following day, in which I was made a formal and accepted. I found the recruiter to be very professional and prompt. The WeWork team to be gracious and down to earth. The process took 2 weeks and was pulled together seamlessly.

I've watched colleagues interview candidates for positions intended to be their direct manager. Not sure the logic in that - they were not interested in hiring someone more qualified than they were. I've also watched panels of "supervisors" with no subject matter expertise evaluate and dismiss qualified candidates because they weren't a "culture fit."
