Interviewing at Zapier: Advice from a Hiring Manager

Interviewing at Zapier: Advice from a Hiring Manager

Each employer has a unique hiring and interview process, and preparing properly for each can make all the difference in how well your interviews go—especially so in today's competitive environment.

Check out the video below for tips on how to prepare for a job interview at Zapier!

Qualified Candidates Make Some Common Mistakes

Thanks to the recent waves of layoffs and rescinded job offers, a lot of people are now looking for a new job in a very different job market than the one that existed just a few months ago, with more people competing for fewer jobs.

As someone who's hired hundreds and interviewed thousands of job candidates, I've seen really qualified, talented people make some common mistakes during the hiring process that often knock them out of consideration.

These mistakes are usually very fixable, and often come down to candidates just not really understanding how the hiring process works.

Real Tips from Real Hiring Managers

To help people be better job candidates, I've asked some real hiring managers and recruiters to share as much as they can to help candidates put their best foot forward during the interview and hiring process, and I'm be sharing this advice here on LinkedIn and on a blog I've launched called Career Cantina.

I recently had the chance to chat with?Bonnie Dilber, who heads up business recruiting at one of the coolest companies out there: Zapier! She's hired hundreds of people over the course of her career and has a ton of amazing advice.

Check out the video below to hear her thoughts on:

  1. How to approach the application process
  2. How to prepare for your first interview
  3. Common mistakes to avoid
  4. How to move the process forward

Job candidates:?let me know if you have any questions!

Hiring managers:?what other advice would you share?

I finally watched this! I am glad I did. Recently I filled the general interest form for future people roles and that of future support roles in Zapier. Currently there are no available roles in the EMEA region that I fit in to, but with this, I am sooo excited and can’t wait for future openings to implement what I have learnt. Not just for Zapier, but for every other company I’ll be applying to. Thank you so much for putting this together for us. And Bonnie Dilber has an awesome smile????????. Thank you again!
