This was a waste of time for the candidate. They conduct their initial tech screen through a third party (karat), which I passed. If you are deemed good enough based on that, THEN you get the opportunity to speak with the recruiter, who would then go over your resume and background with you. After this, then they decide if you are worthy of pursuing for next steps, which also sound time consuming based on other interviews posts. Anyway, the recruiter contacted me later saying that they had not decided to continue with me. Why make me go through a technical screening, especially with a third party, if you are going to reject me based on my resume, when I was initially extended the screening based on (presumably) my resume? Have some decency to respect the applicants and their time. I've been interviewing with a LOT of companies (20+) in the past month and Mulesoft is the first and only company where I have felt disrespected by for the whole process (this wasn't the only company that used Karat - others were more courteous at least). Needless to say, I don't think I will ever apply here again during the rest of my career, and discourage my peers from doing so as well. Seriously. Show some respect. From beginning to the end, Mulesoft has left a very sour taste in my mind. Would not want to work for them, and would be very against my company (whichever it may be in the future) using them based on how they operate.
