Recruiter reached out for Software Engineer position - I mentioned that I was interested in Engineering Manager position with links to some positions from their careers site. We had an initial call about my background and experience, she kept evading (multiple times) questions around which position I was being considered for, and just sent a "Systems Engineer" position (which I had no interest in pursuing) insisting that everybody starts from this position while interviewing, and later they see where you are a fit. The interview process: Karat Interview, Virtual on-site(4-5 interviews), which may be followed by conversations with senior executives. During my Karat interview (1hr), the interviewer spent the first 20 or so minutes: introducing himself, asking about my background, my projects and discussing my experience. He then clearly stated that there would be 1 question that will be asked and the expectation is to finish it in the remainder of the time with completion and passing of all test cases being the only objective (no need for the solution to be optimized). I was able to finish the question within allotted time, with all test cases passing. The recording was then shared with Roblox, and a week later I receive an email from the recruiter saying that there isn't a "good technical match". I asked for feedback and was shocked to learn that the expectation was to solve multiple questions in the Karat interview! What I don't get is: Why was there such a major disconnect in the actual expectation of Roblox, and the expectation communicated by the Karat interviewer? Also, why were the first 20 mins of my interview wasted in discussing projects if the expectation was to solve multiple (3) questions?! This is a clear indication of a company running with chaos: Lack of clear communication within the company and outside - on hiring process and expectations Incompetence of recruiter to answer candidate's questions I would never want to work for such a company - glad the result turned out the way it did!
