I was asked to do a code test, and a technical interview was arranged. All good.

I stupidly completed the code test before the technical interview (don't do this in general, but especially don't do this if you're interviewing here).

The technical interview did not go well for various reasons, but I was very surprised I wasn't even asked about Spark. Not one question about partitions, join types, etc., which others had mentioned here on Glassdoor.

After the technical interview, I heard back that it was a no. I asked for feedback, and they said that based on the interview, they wouldn't proceed.

I said, "Fine, what about feedback on my code test?"

THEY DIDN'T EVEN LOOK AT IT. They ask you to return the code test within about a week, which I did, and they didn't even look at the code. Eventually, the position was closed due to low budgets.

Technical home assessment and live coding.
