Software Engineer Interview Experience - Cambridge, United Kingdom
Process
I travelled from London to Cambridge and unfortunately, they did not even bother to notify the reception to let me into the building. Lucky enough I dug into LinkedIn profile of one of the interviewers and found his details.
Treated as an intruder until to find one of the guys and after this lack of respect, you can imagine I had no mood for any interview or getting hired by the company. For me, it was just time wasters.
