Software Engineer Interview Experience
December 16, 2020
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
Pretty straightforward process with emphasis on coding.
I was upset as the hiring manager promised an offer, and HR did not communicate or respond to my emails. After spending close to 5 hours of my time, it was so unfair to not let me know the reason for rejection after a verbal offer.
