The process was unorganized, with a lack of trust between individuals.

They would communicate the entire process, but then change it at the very next step. For instance, they sent invites for two interview rounds, each lasting one hour, with two interviews in each round (totaling four interviews). Without prior information, one interviewer was absent in each round. Later, they returned and stated that the interviewer who missed the meetings also wanted to conduct a one-hour session each.

As initially conveyed, I was expecting three panel rounds; however, at this stage, they changed it to four. I proceeded with these. Several interviewers had very poor internet connections, requiring me to repeat myself multiple times. This resulted in me losing or missing some important points, as my focus shifted to whether they could hear me.

Initially, an offer discussion with HR was planned. However, the hiring manager wanted to meet me again, despite having a dedicated discussion at the start of the interview process. I assumed that the recruiter only proceeded with the process after his approval.

Unexpectedly, I received an email from another recruiter to schedule my interview with the hiring manager for a different role. I informed her that I had already completed 8-9 rounds for the Sr. Principal role and had another round scheduled with the hiring manager. She acknowledged her mistake and withdrew the invitation.

On the day of the scheduled second discussion with the hiring manager, I received a templated rejection email from my old recruiter. When I expressed my confusion, stating that my discussion with the hiring manager was scheduled for that day, she apologized and said she might have received incorrect information and would correct it.

Shortly after my email conversation with the recruiter, I received an email from the coordinator unilaterally postponing my upcoming discussion with the hiring manager by two days.

By this point, I was extremely frustrated with all the disorganization and had lost my patience, as my time was never valued. Additionally, they consistently pushed me to adjust my schedule to the interviewers' working hours, even when an interviewer was located in a drastically different time zone. This reminded me of one interviewer who mentioned something similar regarding aspects of the work culture that bothered him as well.

I never anticipated this from Autodesk; however, the reality left me surprised. I withdrew my candidature at this stage due to the lack of process, planning, and clear communication within the organization.
