Entretien
Submitted application online. Received email invite for phone interview. This was mostly for culture and fit, and a little business acumen. Invited to come in for a series of in person interviews. 1st was all culture. 2nd was mostly a case study and business acumen. 3rd was with a high level manager, both for culture and business acumen.
Overall I enjoyed the process. The office has the classic start up vibe. Open work area, lunch every day, employees wear t-shirts, dogs running around. It seemed like a really fun place to work, and of course I was disappointed to not move any further, but that's the way things go. They did not provide any feedback, until I requested in an email response. They said I was not selected because of my performance in the case study sections. Fair. We could all do better.
I did read the Glassdoor interview reviews prior to interviewing and it is a little true about what they say, that users felt the interview went well, only to get denied down the road. Which for Flexport, is a good thing, they don't want just anybody.
Advice: take the case study's seriously. This is ultimately what they are judging you on.

I had to go through a 'panel' interview and instead of speaking to two or three people at once, I had to have a video call with 4 different people over 5 sessions. If you are working full time, especially if it's full time in the office, this is absolutely ludicrous to demand this much time off from people to go to these interviews.

Question 1
How do you handle conflict within a team? What do you do if a colleague is not 'pulling their weight'?

Tell me about yourself and walk me through your resume.
Describe a time you faced a significant challenge at work. How did you handle it, and what was the outcome?
Why do you want to work for our company, and why are you interested in this specific role?
It was great! Everyone was very nice and friendly. Everyone I talked to was helpful and they answered any questions I had. Although I did not get the job they were still very clear and forthcoming about it.
