Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Nitrogen Wealth (Atlanta, GA) nel mese di dic 2018
Colloquio
Phone screen with Recruiter talking about the company (about 30 minutes)
On site personality/cultural fit talking about projects I've worked on, why I want a new role etc.
This took about an hour and I was given ample time to ask questions.
On site technical interview. I was given a front end mock web page to review and asked to think about how I would design a backend system based on that system.
The technical interview was about an hour of me describing how the database schema and object-oriented code that would map over the database schema. I felt like this was a fair interview for a backend position and struck a good balance between level of effort and allowing for me to demonstrate my ability. It was technology agnostic and mostly focused on how I would have approached DB design. I enjoyed the interview technical interview process.
Most of the interview process went very well, but there seems to be a disconnect between the recruiter (who is in California) and the hiring manager (who is in Atlanta). I followed up with the recruiter several times and was given generally good feedback each time. Eventually the recruiter told me that I should expect a call from the hiring manager. I have not heard anything back in over a month.
I understand that it is difficult to reach out to every candidate and update them if they are passed over for a job, but it is very disappointing to expect a followup and to never receive one.
It seems like a good company, but they need to work on their candidate experience.

Why do you prefer working in the backend instead of the front end?
I had an initial call with the recruiter, and then a call with the hiring manager. The recruiter seemed nice, but after the call with the hiring manager I was ghosted.
Waste of my time. The pay was subpar for what they are asking of the engineers. Ended up taking an offer from a different company that could afford my services.

General software questions..... nothing too specific.
