Hi All,

Has anyone ever had to do the second step of an interview over slack? It was a legitimate company not a scam. The person I would be working with said the second interview after an assignment was over slack. They asked me in the first interview about my writing skills. They said since it's a remote company most people I'd never speak with directly and everything would be asynchronous through slack. Is this typical?

Anyone have tips for proper slack etiquette or resources to share?

I'm in HR for a tech company but have been fully remote. We use MS Teams which is very similar to Slack.
Yes, with the explosion of remote work online collaboration tools such as Slack are very commonplace.
Some things to consider- expect to be on camera for the meeting so either set up somewhere with a clean, non-distracting background or use the blur background option. Also a headset with microphone is best to ensure good audio quality.
Good luck!

Thank you!

Hi everyone!

This isn’t really an interview question but more of an on-boarding question.
Bit of background- I left my job of 3 years in Dec 2021 for a new company. Initially, I thought the company was great but my mind quickly changed. The on-boarding process was horrible, minimal training, thrown onto enterprise project 2 weeks in, over time, and there is no process for anything. I ended up hating my job.

Fast forward to Mid March, I started applying for jobs again but I omitted this role.
