I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Carbon Robotics (Seattle, WA) in Aug 2024
Interview
Before the interview, there was a questionnaire about previous experience with things such as databases, concurrency and IPC. I had a single interview with the Software Engineering manager. He gave some details about the company, what they were looking for, and asked me the details of a project I worked on, then asked some questions about the project (do your best to have a project to discuss that is related to the role). Then I had about 15 minutes to ask questions. No further interviews.
Enjoyed working on coding problems that seemed to be related to work that would be done on their deployed tech. Nice people and seemed like a fun environment to grow in.

Interview
I had an initial screening interview with a recruiter at Carbon Robotics (Seattle WA), which went well. We then scheduled a specific time for an interview with the hiring manager. However, the hiring manager never showed up. No cancellation, no rescheduling, no communication whatsoever.
I followed up multiple times via email and never received any response. Unfortunately, after a formally scheduled interview, there was no further engagement. Very disappointing and unprofessional behavior, especially for a company that claims to value candidates time and efforts.
