My experience interviewing with CLEAR was mixed and, at times, frustrating. While the opportunity itself is compelling, the process lacked the structure and professionalism I would expect at this level. Communication throughout the process felt unorganized, with limited coordination and clarity around next steps. There also appeared to be little consideration for candidates’ time—particularly given the requirement for an onsite interview at the airport, which creates an out-of-pocket cost burden for the interviewee. Additionally, the interview structure included "interviews" with team members, including the individual currently in the role. While visibility is valuable, this approach felt limiting, as it didn’t leave much room for fresh perspective or new ideas. Overall, the process did not feel as polished or intentional as expected, which made it difficult to fully engage with the opportunity despite my initial interest.

Phone screen, then interviewed with HR. She described the process as requiring several interviews - ending with a face to face with the CEO. The next step was a panel interview with peers; which was an alarm. Neither of them had been with the company longer than a year, one only for two months. Neither had four-year degrees which was when I discerned that the pay we had talked about was fictional. They described an Enterprise Rent a Car environment where I would be hustling subscriptions to the happy people waiting in security screening lines part of the time while I grew the business on my way to vast riches. Everyone was polite, but I felt the description and requirements in the listing were quite different than the job would actually be. No thanks.
