I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at WideOrbit

Interview

A recruiter reached out to me and it was a fairly easy process to book an interview. It was not the right fit for me. However, HR was on it and the staff was nice.

Communication is as quick. The job posting and what was discussed with the recruiter didn’t seem to be an exact match. I would have appreciated a more accurate job positing to know what I was getting into.

Technical Account Manager

Being a woman in tech, I only recently started advocating for myself at work about advancement opportunities. Because of this I wanted to ask this question to my male counterparts. When you have 1:1's with your direct reports and talk about career growth / aspirations what is your managers’ response typically? I’d like to gauge how my experience (negative) differs from others. For instance are you met with blockades, enthusiasm, dread, etc?

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at WideOrbit

Interview

The recruiter reached out and was "very excited" to meet and connect with me. Then she went dark. I followed up and she apologized and set time to connect. Fantastic interview and my experience and fit were obvious. She wanted me to meet with the team. Then: back to no contact and no follow-up. Extremely unprofessional.

Similar as the other comments regarding this position. Interview phone screened about six weeks ago... Crickets. Good conversation, interaction with recruiter. (I am not sure why Glassdoor is implementing a 30 word minimum for this section, it makes no sense. So here are some more words.)

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at WideOrbit (New York, NY) in Jun 2022

Interview

The interview process was actually pretty good from the initial screening through to the hiring manager. However, as the final steps of meeting with the HR team came about, I was scheduled to meet with peers for 45-minute individual meetings which was very time consuming. I recommend and actually asked if one or more could be combined and was told no. After having 3 consecutive interviews on a Friday afternoon, I was told immediately afterwards that the position was being modified and filled by a rehire. This decision had been made in the last 48 hours so the final 4 interviews - 3 consecutive - were a complete waste of my time! I should've been notified of this change and the interviews canceled to not waste my time or their staff's.

I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at WideOrbit (New York, NY) in Jun 2022

Interview

Breezed through the first round. Second round engineer had a real chip on his shoulder. I aced all his questions, but he was mostly concerned with proving this would be harder than any other job I had. He must have not bothered to read my resume b/c that was ridiculous.

Interview Questions
  • What are you passionate about (I expect they want you to say "targeted advertising using data bought from Nielsen's without any particularly interesting technology of our own")

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at WideOrbit (Dallas, TX) in Jan 2022

Interview

For a company that claims to do a lot of training, the technical interview was unnecessarily demeaning. The hiring manager was actually very nice, it was the team lead interview that really was unnecessary.

Interview Questions
  • How do you manage stressful situations? What is a subnet mask?

HR provided great input on what to expect and next-steps throughout the interview process. Started with a quick call to go over the qualifications for the role to make sure the position was a fit and of interest (20 min). Then a longer 30 min phone interview was scheduled with the hiring manager. This was then followed by in-person interviews (pre-COVID-19) with members of the team.

Easy Interview
Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at WideOrbit (Dallas, TX) in May 2021

Interview

The interview process was quite easy to navigate. The talent acquisition team really simplified it, taking the stress off the candidate. The communication level was outstanding across the board. There were no days wondering what was happening or how things were going. They kept me in the loop the whole way. To me, it shows a great level of respect towards the candidates and their time, so that was one of the many factors that enticed me. I spoke with three different people at various levels so they could get an understanding of what I had to offer and I had the opportunity to interview them about the position and the company - and each person had a different point of view to offer that helped me make my decision. As a whole this process was easy, yet very informative.

Employee Story
This Months's #meetawideorbiter features Kasey McCormick Lyding: My name is Kasey McCormick Lyding, and I have proudly been with WideOrbit for the last 10 years. I am a Senior Manager of Professional Services, leading the WO Network Implementation team. I am deeply fascinated by the media industry and enjoy interacting with our customers, understanding their initiatives, and charting a course for them to achieve their goals. WideOrbit offers a range of rewarding perks and programs that I truly appreciate. One that stands out to me is our sabbatical program, which I have been fortunate enough to participate in twice, and I'm eagerly awaiting my third sabbatical. This program allows me to recharge and avoid burnout, and I believe it has greatly contributed to my professional success here at WideOrbit. I'm also proud to have been part of two recent Learning and Development initiatives, the Management Development Course and the newly launched Mentorship Program.

Employee Story
This month’s #MeetaWideOrbiter features Elham Saebi: My name is Elham Saebi, and I am a Software Engineer at WideOrbit. I work with the WO Traffic Engineering team where I focus on the enhancement and development of new features for the WO Traffic application. I joined WideOrbit last September as a remote engineer based in Orange County, California. Moving to the US from Canada, this is my first job experience in the US, and I am delighted to be a part of the WideOrbit team. WideOrbit offers various programs to help connect employees both personally and professionally. Some that I have enjoyed the most include Balance and Belonging, Financial Wellness, and a private Facebook group. WideOrbit also encourages employees to volunteer up to 8 hours per year. In December, I had the opportunity to volunteer with two of my fellow Southern California-based WideOrbiters at the Second Harvest Food Bank Farm where we worked in the fields to harvest vegetables with other volunteers. We were able to contribute to helping provide nutritious and fresh food to our local community.
