Beyond interview questions

This was, without exaggeration, one of the most chaotic and disrespectful recruitment processes I have ever experienced. Nearly five months of silence, confusion, and constant chasing, with no sign that Qodea understands or cares that candidates have lives, commitments, or may be out of work. The process begins with a pointless one‑way video interview that feels designed to save their time, not respect yours. It adds no value and sets the tone for what becomes a painfully slow, disorganised ordeal. From there, everything falls apart. Weeks and months pass with no updates. Interviews happen, then the communication dies again. Every step requires you to chase repeatedly just to get basic information. Excuses pile up: endless interview rounds, hiring managers off sick, delays “working through things.” It’s amateur hour from start to finish. After dragging me through every stage, they eventually rejected me with a lazy line about wanting “more experience.” If that were true, I should never have been progressed in the first place. It shows a complete lack of structure, clarity, and respect for candidates’ time. Summary: Qodea’s hiring process is dysfunctional, painfully slow, and disrespectful. Expect confusion, silence, and wasted months. This is not a serious or candidate‑focused organisation. Avoid.
