Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Remitly (Seattle, WA) nel mese di gen 2019
Colloquio
HR reach out, phone screen with hiring mgr, in-person 6-hour loop. The HR people were warm and welcoming. The phone-screen was straight forward and felt good. The in-person needs serious improvement. Several VERY junior people doing interviews with no apparent guidance or support (no one was shadowing to learn and no one shadowed to give feedback) and questions seemed unvetted. The loop included the worst interview hour I've ever had in my career and I thought of aborting and leaving before lunch based on the low calibre and surreal nature of that person in that hour.
Figure out where the error is in this system. Interviewer drew a schematic for a multi-part system and posed a problem related to errors seen in production and asked me to diagnose. Apparently this was something encountered by the team.

Colloquio
Recruiter schedules, cancels, reschedules, cancels again. It's a chaos to get an interview in this company. It took more than six weeks to finally talk to the recruiter for the first time. Same experience in scheduling a technical interview. Then they disappear. No feedback, no rejection.

Colloquio
Typical interview process: screening with HM, 3 technical interviews, another screening with the HM. Overall it was okay, except for the interviews with the HM. For the first one, he was late and hadn't seem to have read my resume, needing to read it as the meeting started. For the second one, he asked all the same questions he had a week or so before. He seemed unengaged and was asking such highly specific questions about solving their specific technical problems that it made me wonder if the listing is even real at all, especially given how old it was. In either case, he didn't communicate what he was asking well and I was frustrated that it seemed like he didn't understand what I was saying. All the other interviewers were top notch and well prepared.

Typical STAR questions (which by the way, always expect a certain answer, which is why they are widely considered poor and outdated practice). Don't ask "tell me a time when X" when X is not a usual thing most people will have experienced. You'll just get lies as responses! And no, you won't be able to tell!
Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Remitly (Vancouver, BC)
Colloquio
Recruiter call, asked a bit about my experience and explained what the team is currently doing on. They are planning to expand in Vancouver seems like. After the call, didnt hear back from the recruiter. And after a while got a rejection email.
