Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Venmo (Chicago, IL) nel mese di mag 2019
Colloquio
Recruiter reached out to me, there was some back and forth, and a phone call that ended the process. The tech interviewer was very friendly and pleasant to talk to, but it was pretty clear that they were unimpressed with my skill set and background. That's life in the big city for ya lol.
I have contempt for the recruiter for being pushy and lacking the decency to follow up after the interview. Call me old fashioned, but writing a paragraph takes all of a minute and given they started the process it seems appropriate that they end it. This was really the only thing about this process that annoyed me; the engineer I spoke with was cool.
I didn't really think this was an interview that was worth my time given the experience I had, but I guess it was my fault for following through with it at all. Overall it was a useless distraction for everyone involved which is unfortunate, but a reality of dealing with larger tech companies.

Generic email from tech recruiter (Stan?) while I was on the hunt so I responded. Had a 10 minute or so phone screen with Stan where he had no idea where the company was headed or even what stack they worked on. Needless to say I went into the first technical call blind, but still passed. No response, but 6 weeks (?) later they ask me to come onsite. Asked the tech recruiter again what to expect onsite and he still gave nothing -- completely blindsided again.I felt ignored.
Not trying to be pretentious but every tech recruiter I've worked with has at least had an ounce of information about what to prepare for during interviews Not a good look for a company infamous for losing talent.

First you apply online, then there's phone interviews, then a coding challenge that they send you, and then an onsite. Fairly straightforward. The onsite has both technical interviews and behavioral. They want to check for culture fit above almost everything.
