Frontend Software Engineer Interview Experience - Hungary
Process
HR call. The lady was very friendly, patient, and well-prepared.
We had a 45-minute session with two technical individuals. We went through my past experiences, and they asked some questions about JavaScript ES6. I felt a connection, and I was relaxed throughout the entire process.
After the interview, I received a call informing me of my rejection. The stated reasons were a lack of experience in security and backend programming. It's worth noting that this was not a senior role, and no questions about backend or security were asked during the interview. I cannot say they were professional at all. I sensed that one of the interviewers was looking for a scapegoat to justify their bullying.

As a software engineer, you will find yourself working with the latest tools and languages, which is outstanding in the fintech sector. There is a constant effort to modernize our existing tools and write code of the highest quality. The UI that we write should also look amazing, and the code really needs to be tested well (not only backend, but UI code as well!). The Budapest office really succeeds in hiring the best engineers available in the region. Plus, the new office is amazing! I highly recommend Blackrock engineering teams!Cons: I did not see anything wrong while working here.
