I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Volie (Fort Myers, FL) in Aug 2023
Interview
I got through the initial phone screening after a couple emails. Peter was pretty nice on the phone but the interview process was weird & the questions are unrelated to my experience or the job as it was described in the listing. Zero feedback, plus he promised to let me know within two weeks and give feedback on the interview and then completely ghosted me. Heard from several others who interviewed and had the same promises made and not upheld. I don't mind getting ghosted, I know that's the MO in the current job market, but it frustrated me to be promised feedback and then not follow through. I sent a follow up email that was completely ignored as well. His metaphor for the screening was that he was "speed dating" his candidates, which was a bit uncomfortable and made it kind of awkward.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Lots of back end questions even though I was applying for front end. Lots of very open ended, vague questions using terminology that a junior dev is very likely to not know. Felt like a whole bunch of "gotchas" in a row. No conversation, no getting to know each other.
