I applied on Linkedin, got the usual initial HR email and call. After that, a technical interview was booked over zoom. The first half of the interview was quite good, with high-level questions around my experience, tools I've used, cloud providers, git, star schema etc. Then the second part of the interview started, they shared a google spreadsheet,(which I couldn't have access to type my answers btw) containing three-game session event tables, and questions around requirements gathering, table modelling and how I would set up an airflow job to consolidate the game session data every hour. To start with, there was absolutely no standard to table attribute naming, which I couldn't change - quite confusing to understand the structure. Then they asked me to elaborate requirement gathering questions, which I did a few. As I won't have access to the spreadsheet, I had to dictate my answers then one of the interviewers answered in handwritten letter. Everything was a complete mess neither we could understand properly at the end. This second part was the worst for me, quite awful because the interviewers didn't make them clear enough around their expectations, being a very confusing mix of requirements gathering, among modelling and data extraction questions. For every decision I made a new piece of information was provided, making it even more confusing and changing entirely my initial understanding of the problem statement. I had the impression that they have never done this kind of questioning before. The interview ended, as usual, asking if I had any questions for them, which I said an abrupt no(making them a bit surprised), then it ended. In the end of the day, it was a very frustrating and pointless process with absolutely no feedback so far, as I was expecting. One or two das after I received an email from the recruiter asking me how it went, which I described as above. Interesting to realize the reason for this email, I wonder if there was a comunication gap between HR and tech hahaha. To be honest, I don't want to work with people like these, who won't think twice putting you under the bus if they can - clear indication of a poor company culture and certainly a toxic environment which I avoid at all costs.
