Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - United Kingdom

April 30, 2020

Process

Checkout.com reached out to interview me.

I graciously accepted and asked a few introductory questions. The Checkout.com person blatantly ignored them and sent me a very terse "ok, we'll call you at X tomorrow."

I waited until that time, had my headphones in, and waited for my phone to ring, as per the calendar invite. Someone was to call me on my cell.

A few minutes after the interview "started," I received an email with a Zoom link. I, of course, didn't see this in time, so I replied, apologizing but asking for clarification.

The person came back with a reply that can only be deemed snarky, implying that I was:

  • Not aware of Zoom
  • Unable to read

This demonstrated a serious lack of professionalism, and I couldn't help but question whether this is the sort of place where it would be worth taking my talents.

Was this helpful?
