hey anyways design hiring fucking sucks and we should highlight the teams that do it right as much as we callout the ones that do it poorly

Zapier has a commitment to applicants. It's very good and they abided by it in my case. Didn't work out but they were fast, human, and operate a job board with their partners if you don't move forward to interviewing! zapier.com/jobs/our-commi…

Our Commitment to Applicants
We know applying for and taking on a new job at any company requires a leap of faith. We want you to feel comfortable and excited to apply at Zapier.

Monogram, on the other hand, replied quickly and asked for a Loom introduction. Viewed it, then ghosted me and reposted the position on read.cv. Takes five seconds to reply to my follow up email, I refuse to believe you're too busy for that.

Both eqbank.ca/ and upsiide.com/ have take home assignments as a part of hiring. I mentioned in both cases that it was not something I was comfortable doing without compensation, and both nodded, hung up, and have now vanished into the LinkedIn ether.

brex.com 's recruiters took several weeks to respond to an application, scheduled a screening call with me... and then never called me. No follow up email either. See ya.

Upsiide / Dig Insights Screener booked 1 month after I applied, and follow up email just came through... 35 days after the screener. Even if I was still looking, no thanks.
