Anonymous Interview Candidate in San Francisco, CA
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed (San Francisco, CA)
Very straighforward and transparent process for the role. Spoke with recruiting manager and had clear guidance and set expectations each step of the way. When I wasn't a good fit for a role I interviewed for, the hiring managers and recruiters suggested others that I met with. I felt seen and valued through the entire process.
- What are your career goals? What is your management style? What tools do you use for research?

I interviewed at Indeed (California City, CA)
Terrible interview process. Ran each of the 4 interviews over time, and left 5minutes for questions about the job and company. Out of all companies I interviewed at this round, they were by far the worst.
- Scenario questions. They want CISSP level vague answers from the staff handling security incidents. When asked what answers they were looking for, they did not provide any further detail about what they thought the correct approach was.

fair process, they team asked good questions. upper management turnover was a concern. two rounds of 1:1s and panel. The questions were good but the work seemed a bit boring.
- tell me about a time....
Does anyone have insight and/or heard anything about working at Indeed?
I’ve really enjoyed my time at Indeed. Great WLB. Compensation may not be MAANG (whatever it is now) level, but the WLB, benefits, WFH, and pretty awesome people make it a great place to work. Total comp is still very competitive (base, quarterly bonus, RSUs, 100% 401k match up to 5%). Big focus on employee health and well-being.

Analytical and mathematical questions. The process was 6 different interviews. Decision making questions as well and also analysis. Tough in general but worth going through the process. The process took 2 months approx.
- Don't remember the exact question but basically it was math and probabilities.

I was ghosted , logged in and no one came on the video call. waste of time. I was really looking forward to learning more about the program. Hopefully an opportunity opens up.
- Didnt show at the requested time.
Is it wrong to apply for numerous jobs on Indeed, even if you don't have the experience required in hopes of someone seeing your resume and saying "This person doesn't have the skills for this job but I wonder if they would be interested in an entry level position in my company?"
Doesn't hurt to apply to multiple jobs, but applying to stuff you are not qualified will not change anything and is kinda a waste of time. They won't suggest you for a lower job, they will just throw out your app

Just last month I moved to Vancouver and I am really struggling getting an interview anywhere. I have just under 2 years experience in Java/Javascript based roles. I understand it is tough for everyone at the moment in the industry but its hard to stay motivated at this point. Does anyone have any advice? I have been tailoring my CV's towards the job specs to pass the ATS scanners and have had a couple of referrals. I have been using mostly LinkedIn and Indeed.
You need a plan for your passive and active job search. LinkedIn profile uses keywords that allows you to be found ? Do you connect to recuiters ? Have you asked former coworkers for LinkedIn recommendations? This is an easy way to add more keywords. On the active search…. I did look at job openings on LinkedIn and Indeed. But I also looked at government job sites. I don’t know the Canadian equivalent but jobs.gov is the place to apply for US Federal government jobs. And more importantly I researched companies. And then looked on their website for job openings,

The interview process for the SRE position at Indeed involved several stages: Initial Screening: This stage may involve a phone screen or an initial assessment to evaluate your basic qualifications, skills, and experience. You may be asked about your background, relevant projects, and technical knowledge. Technical Interviews: If you pass the initial screening, you will typically move on to one or more technical interviews. These interviews are designed to assess your technical abilities, problem-solving skills, and knowledge related to SRE practices. Expect questions about systems architecture, scalability, automation, monitoring, incident response, and other relevant topics. You may also be given coding or system design exercises to evaluate your programming and architectural skills. Behavioral Interviews: In addition to technical evaluations, behavioral interviews are conducted to assess your communication skills, teamwork abilities, and how you handle different situations. You might be asked behavioral or situational questions that focus on your past experiences, conflict resolution, prioritization, or how you handle on-call responsibilities. System Design and Architecture: As an SRE, you will be expected to design and maintain highly available and scalable systems. Therefore, you may be presented with a system design problem during the interview process. This could involve designing a fault-tolerant architecture, ensuring high availability, or addressing performance issues. On-Site or Virtual Interviews: Depending on the position and location, you may be invited for on-site interviews at Indeed's office or virtual interviews conducted via video conferencing tools. These interviews may include a mix of technical, behavioral, and system design discussions with various team members and hiring managers. Culture Fit and Team Alignment: Indeed places importance on cultural fit and how well you align with their team dynamics. You might have interviews specifically focused on assessing your fit within the company culture and your ability to work collaboratively.
