Disorganized and Disrespectful: Avoid Decisely's Chaotic Interview Process
Disorganized interview process
Lack of preparation from interviewers
Inappropriate and disrespectful questioning
Hostile and aggressive behavior towards candidates
Excessive talking by interviewers, cutting off candidates
Unprofessional attitude towards interviewees and other companies
I recently had the displeasure of going through the interview process at Decisely for a software developer position, and it was a complete disaster from start to finish. The interviewers seemed completely unprepared, lacking any coherent line of questioning and often resorting to disrespectful and inappropriate remarks.
The entire process felt like a chaotic mess, with interviewers jumping from one topic to another without any clear direction. It was evident that they had no clue what they were asking and lacked a basic understanding of the role they were interviewing for.
What's worse is the disrespectful attitude towards candidates. Instead of engaging in constructive dialogue, interviewers resorted to talking down about past experiences and even going as far as calling them "lame", "poor" and "sus". This aggressive behavior only served to create a hostile environment that was completely unwelcoming.
Furthermore, interviewers seemed more interested in talking about themselves and their opinions rather than assessing the skills and qualifications of the candidates. They would ask questions only to cut off the responses midway, leaving candidates feeling frustrated and undervalued.
It's clear that Decisely's interview process is deeply flawed and reflects poorly on the company culture. I would strongly advise any job seekers to steer clear of this organization unless they enjoy being disrespected and demeaned. Decisely has a long way to go in terms of improving their hiring practices and treating candidates with the respect they deserve.
