Overall, it was a very enjoyable process. The first interview, by phone, was more of a conversation. It was really just to get to know you and find out more about your interests in the job. The recruiter was friendly, thoughtful, and knowledgeable about the position and the company. In twenty or so minutes, I was informed that MuleSoft wanted to move forward. The second interview was more related to the job, with a few basic "tell me a time..." questions. This was also a good experience. In both interviews, I felt at ease and could be myself. After that, I was invited a few days later to perform an exercise mirroring the types of tasks I would be doing in the actual position. There is no way to prepare for it, so don't stress out about it. It was a challenging yet fun task. After a few more days, I was informed I wouldn't be advancing to what I assume would be the on-site interview. I attribute their decision not to move forward to how I performed on the exercise. The decision, however, was probably for the best, as I don't believe I exactly met their criteria. Although somewhat disappointing, I respect the decision and am grateful to have had the opportunity to interview with some professional and really cool people from a great company.

Applied online then recruiter reached out to schedule a phone screen. The overall experience was by far the worst I have ever experienced. The recruiter, he was a male recruiter and fairly young, was not engaged or interested in speaking to me. The vibes I was getting were not good, so I withdrew my application after that conversation. A piece of advice for this gentleman, act like you care next time the candidates are your clients too.
