Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Budapest, Hungary
Process
I completed 3 rounds of interviews for a Senior Software Engineer position, after which Cloudera completely stopped communicating with me. I didn't even receive a rejection email or any update. This experience was very unprofessional and left a very negative impression. Based on this experience, I would not consider applying to Cloudera again in the future. Regardless of the hiring decision, candidates deserve basic communication and respect for the time they invest.
