Interview
Interviewed with the recruiter which was very brilliant, kind and helpful. Then head towards the tech interview.
Unfortunately, the technical interview experience was the complete opposite. It felt unprepared and quite awkward. The panel consisted of one junior and one senior engineer, both of whom were very quiet and difficult to engage with, which made the interview uncomfortable.
During the technical tasks, it felt like they already had a specific solution in mind and were reluctant to discuss alternative approaches, despite software engineering often allowing for multiple valid implementations rather than a single “correct” answer.
This was disappointing, as it negatively impacted what could have been a positive experience and left me feeling that my chances were undermined by the interview setup rather than my ability. I hope future candidates have a more structured and collaborative technical interview experience.
