I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Deliveroo (Londra, Inghilterra) in Apr 2017
Interview
30 min phone call with Head of Recruitment (Engineering). Somehow, I did not find it easy to talk about my career with the type of asked questions (no STAR questions, rookies questions).
The manager was not interested to hear or answer my questions at the end of the interview. He let me ask one question, the line cut, I called back and he told me he would provide me feedback.
I have never experienced such unprofessional approach.. Rather a pity for them, as evaluating questions of a candidate is often relevant ..
After the call, I didn't want to work for then anyway and would never recommend them or use their service.
The recruitment process appeared disorganized, with a noticeable absence of feedback following the interview. It seemed the focus was predominantly on gathering market intelligence rather than assessing candidate suitability. Additionally, the communication from the recruiter did not meet professional expectations.
It started well with an initial recruiter screen and a follow up interview with the hiring manager, who was great! However, it quickly went downhill from there. After being told I'd hear back in a few days, there was silence. I followed up to never receive a response. Then a few weeks later, I received a rejection email out of the blue. Given that the company requires candidates to go through 3-5 interviews, the very least I would expect a simple communication in return, especially to their follow recruitment candidates who could potentially be their team mates in the future.
Hi - thanks for taking the time to share and I completely agree with you - it sounds like we dropped the ball here and well below our usual standards. Would you mind dropping me an email so I can look into this, and maybe make it up to you (at the least to see if I can get you feedback?) jamie.edwards+glassdoor@deliveroo.co.uk

Interview
Very efficient / clear - there were 3 rounds including a pre screen. More senior roles had more interview stages. Good interview process with helpful interview panel. Would suggest reading company values and mission statement.
