I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BetterUp (Phoenix, AZ) in Sep 2019
Interview
It took about a week. I received an initial request for a 30-minute virtual interview with the recruiter. The position didn't align exactlyfor me, but overall a pleasant experience.
BetterUp's interview process was one of the best experiences I've had compared to any other company I was interviewing for.
Its very organized and well thought out. The recruiters also take time to answer any questions and truly want to set you up for success before each interview!
While its a fairly long process, it shows that they really take the time to get the best candidates for the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If I spoke with your friends, what would they say is a great quality about you? how about a quality that you need to work on?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BetterUp in Feb 2021
Interview
The interview process was long BUT so purposeful! I felt like I was able to make an educated decision about the position being the right fit for my skills and also my personal goals. Each interview was interested in me as a person and a contributor to the culture in addition to traditional skills and other contributing factors to success in any position. There was an initial interview, a skills assessment, a contact with a recruiter who supported you through the entire process, an onsite interview day consisting of 5 different interviews including a 2-on-1 peer interview (SO fun!) and a final interview with one of the co-founders!

Question 1
How I manage my time when an urgent concern interrupts my flow?
I applied online. I interviewed at BetterUp in Dec 2020
Interview
This is a lengthier interview process, but you will feel informed throughout!
There's an initial conversation, a take home, a power day (think 6-8 different interviewers), and an interview with the COO before you get to the offer.
BetterUp is intentional about making a good technical and community hire, and you'll feel the hard work they put into their recruiting once you join the team.
My main recommendation is that there's more context provided for the power day of interviews (what to expect with each interviewer).

-Talk about a project where you had to navigate uncertainty
-Talk about a time where you had to say no
-Other behavioral questions (ex. Why BetterUp, how would you previous colleagues describe you, etc.)
