At Boomi, we help approximately 20,000 companies around the world connect data, people, and devices quickly and easily to advance digital transformation and deliver great customer experiences. We’re looking for new team members, and we’re glad you’re considering joining our team.
We know interviewing can be stressful, but don’t worry, we’re here to help. In this blog post, we’ll provide some tips and resources to help guide you through the interview process at Boomi. Remember, though, that it’s important for you to do your own research and prep work for the particular job you’re applying for.
The Interview Process at Boomi
After you submit your application, it will be reviewed by a Boomi recruiter, who will contact you if your experience aligns with the position requirements. The interview process at Boomi typically involves three rounds of interviews.
Round 1: Recruiter Phone Interview
This is typically a 30-minute phone call with a local recruiter, interviewing candidates on behalf of the hiring department, such as Sales or Engineering. In this interview, you should be ready to talk about your background, your job interests and requirements, and any visa sponsorship issues relevant to your employment. The recruiter will also walk you through the rest of the interview process for the role you’re applying for.
Round 2: First Round Interview
This is a more in-depth interview, possibly lasting up to an hour, usually with the hiring manager. Expect a deep dive into your job experience and how it relates to the job opening. The interview may also cover topics such as the purpose of the job as it relates to Boomi’s mission, the opportunity for the job to make an impact on the manager’s team, the hiring team’s structure and goals, and the manager’s management style. It’s a good idea to prepare questions to ask the manager, covering any areas you would like to learn more about.
Round 3: Additional Interviews
If you pass the first two rounds of interviews, you can expect 1-3 more interviews with other Boomi employees such as job peers, a cross-functional partner, or the hiring manager’s manager. If the job you’re applying for is technical, you might also undergo a technical interview in HackerRank or be asked to prepare a presentation on an assignment.
Interview Tips
No matter which stage of the interview process you’re in, we recommend following this advice:
- Bring your authentic self.
- Be prepared to answer questions such as “Tell me about a time when…” or “Describe a project that…”
- Be intentional about how your experience aligns with the job description
- Show up on time. (It’s okay to be a little early.)
- Do research. We recommend learning about our company and the Boomi platform. We also recommend learning about how Boomi customers and partners use our technology to achieve their boldest goals.
- If you’re interviewing remotely, check the video link and your computer’s performance ahead of time.
A Little About Us
Boomi aims to make the world a better place by connecting everyone to everything, anywhere. The pioneer of cloud-based integration platform as a service (iPaaS), and now a category-leading, global software as a service (SaaS) company, Boomi touts the largest customer base among integration platform vendors and a worldwide network of approximately 800 partners – including Accenture, Capgemini, Deloitte, SAP, and Snowflake. Global organizations turn to Boomi’s award-winning platform to discover, manage, and orchestrate data, while connecting applications, processes, and people for better, faster outcomes.
To learn more about us, we recommend watching a recent interview with our Chief Innovation Officer Ed Macosky and journalists from theCUBE. An accelerated excerpt is available here, but we think the whole interview, which runs about 17 minutes, is worth watching to get a sense of Boomi’s strengths and how Boomi customers are using our technology. It’s not a requirement though!
