Anonymous Interview Candidate in Los Angeles, CA

Declined Offer
Negative Experience
Average Interview
Application

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Netflix (Los Angeles, CA)

Interview

First, there was a phone screen with the recruiter, then 6 interviews with different cross-functional partners over 2 days. The recruiter missed the initial phone screen appointment that was scheduled because she "fell behind on her emails." Then, that same recruiter went on vacation after I completed the interview process and it took an additional few weeks to receive an offer. I declined it since I received another offer in the meantime.

Does Netflix really pay substantially higher than anywhere else in entertainment? I’m seeing salaries listed here and in shock how low they are compared to Netty. We have ICs at $250k. Managers at $300k-$400k. Directors are $500k+. Does anywhere else come close to comparable? Makes it hard to think about leaving for a better role with such a huge pay cut coming along with it.

Average Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Netflix (Dubai)

Interview

it was lengthy and took 3 or 4 weeks to finally meet the head of comms for the region, I was approached by talent acquisition who knew nothing about communications, the problem is that this process happened twice over 2 years and it ended with failure in both times

Interview Questions
  • I was asked if I watched Arabic shows, and saying no to the head of comms who was interviewing me for an Arabic content-dedicated position made her frustrated, I said I would watch it if I had to, if I need to write about it. but I don't think the quality of the arabic content they made is as great as the english content

It was a good chat but ultimately not a fit and the interviewer followed up to let me know via email within a week, which was very nice of him to do - not all interviewers are as courteous.

Very friendly and smooth process. People asked reasonable but challenging questions. Recruiter was fast through the process and enjoyed working with her. Thankful it was so fast! They were able to beat another company that I was interviewing for too.

I am forced to leave Netflix because they give false promises. I was an intern first and have been a FTE for a year now and have not gotten the comp changes I was promised. Since have seen many people come in entry level and get so much more than me but they are so much less equipped and worse than I was as an intern. Do they hate their own?

Wait, you are still being paid as an intern as an FTE? That's your fault for staying more than three months bud. I don't even blame them for not raising your salary if you took it for a whole year.

Interview

Exceptional Interview Experience for the Digital Marketer Position I recently had the privilege of interviewing for the Digital Marketer position, and I am thrilled to share my incredibly positive experience. From start to finish, the interview process was not only well-organized but also insightful and engaging. The initial stages of the interview process set the tone for what was to come. The HR team was prompt and efficient in coordinating the interview schedule, demonstrating their commitment to a seamless candidate experience. Communication was clear and concise, leaving no room for uncertainty. As I progressed to the interview rounds, I was met with a panel of seasoned professionals who displayed a genuine interest in my background and aspirations. The questions were thoughtfully designed to assess not only my technical skills but also my ability to think critically and creatively within the realm of digital marketing. I particularly appreciated the focus on real-world scenarios, where I was given the opportunity to showcase my problem-solving skills and share examples of successful campaigns I had executed in the past. One aspect that truly stood out was the company's dedication to assessing cultural fit. Beyond evaluating my technical competencies, the interviewers took the time to understand my values and how they aligned with the company's mission. This demonstrated a forward-thinking approach to building a team that thrives collaboratively in a dynamic work environment. What truly impressed me was the company's commitment to innovation. Throughout the interview, I was encouraged to share my ideas for creative marketing strategies and was met with enthusiasm and insightful feedback. This not only highlighted the company's openness to fresh perspectives but also reinforced the notion that creativity and innovation are deeply valued and nurtured. In retrospect, my interview experience for the Digital Marketer position was not just an evaluation of my qualifications, but a stimulating conversation that left me inspired and excited about the prospect of contributing to the team's success. The professionalism, genuine engagement, and emphasis on a candidate's holistic fit within the organization make this interview process truly exceptional. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire interviewing panel for making this experience one that I will remember with enthusiasm. I am eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to potentially join your esteemed team and contribute to the continued growth and innovation that your company is known for.
