      Application

      I interviewed at Appear

      Interview

      I had an initial conversation with Talent Acquisition, followed by a second interview with the hiring manager and another team member. Both interviews were pleasant, and everyone I spoke with was professional and friendly. The discussions focused more on my background and personal approach to work than on technical problem solving. My negative impression of the process comes entirely from the way it concluded. After completing the interviews, I received a generic rejection email with no explanation. Since I felt I had progressed reasonably far in the process, I reached out to ask for feedback, but I never received a response. I understand that companies are not obligated to provide detailed feedback, but after investing time in multiple interviews, I would have appreciated at least a brief explanation or acknowledgment. The lack of any response to my follow-up message left me disappointed and is the main reason for my negative review.

      Question 1

      The interviews focused mainly on my background, previous experience, and how I approach collaboration and work. The discussions were more conversational and personality-oriented than deeply technical.

      Interview

      The first round was an HR interview, pretty standard, asked about motivation, and did a small presentation about the company in a nice way. the second one was with the hiring manager, it was more of a chat about the company, codebase, agile processes... and asked about my experience in every topic of these. the third round was technical with the dev team, they asked questions about c++, and whether I am familair with CI tools, testing, docker, git.. Finally , after waiting several weeks, received an email that hiring was frozen.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Appear (Oslo) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      It was a 3 phase interview. First, phone call by an engineer from Appear. It is not technical, just for quick introduction of both sides. You can tell your expectations and ask your questions. Second, after one week, phone technical interview. A developer asks you technical questions according to the position. After three weeks, they invited me to their office for on site interview. It is a four hour interview. You are meeting with four people from different positions. Language specific questions, design and some qualified code questions they asked. Interviewers were nice. Also, they show you the office.
