Initial screening interview lasted a little longer than 20 mins, and took place over Zoom. Recruiter asked me about the experience on my resume, when I'd be available to start, and my expectations for compensation.

Good over all. Five stage interview process ranging in difficulty and assessing different criteria for the job based on previous experiences. Good over all. I think it’s goods but don’t have light thoughts

I had a 30 minute HR interview for a SDR role in Boston. I appreciated that Datadog provided discussion points for the call beforehand. Despite being prepared and having an overall productive conversation, I found the NYC recruiter to be beyond rude. When I inquired about company meetings (which wasn't on my list of questions to ask but while I was scrolling to my pre-prepared questions in my word doc, I nervously just asked about company/team meetings) she expressed her judgement to my question with 5+ seconds of obnoxious, very loud, intentional "coughing" that was unmistakably judgement and jumping to conclusions. I felt that the conversation had gone well up until this point. Recruiters have the power to make candidates feel uplifted or torn down during interviews - and this recruiter certainly succeeded in doing the latter. It's unnecessary and unfortunately a terrible look both for her personally and Datadog.
