Senior Engineer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months.

  • Positive: Interviewers there were grate to talk to. * Quick Synopsis: It was like when I dated a super-hot model type girl back in high school. End results super fail. Wasted time & wasted efforts. * I got put through the ringer on a technical position. 6 interviews with different team members to make sure I was a fit for culture, the position and the company. From the project scope and amount of work I was able to assess that there is a true need for the position and there is a lot of needed work to be done. After the rush of interviews came the "Ohh we really like you, please hang on". Then the onset of delays in communication with random sprinkles of progress. (One can only imagine how the day-to-day work/communication would be).

A literal 2 MONTH process of, we're almost there I get a call on a Friday afternoon with recruiter saying "We're ready if you’re still interested". I responded back “sure”. (I understand things take time sometimes). Again, no response in communication till mid week after with no reply back, with a "Well we’ve decided to put this and other positions on hold". This sounds indicative of company financial issues or lack of management and dysfunction from the Sr/top management/Dir/C level. – I was so close to putting in my resignation to be prepared for this new position. Good thing I waited to see some paperwork. That would have been super bad for myself and my family. This place might be grate for someone with no financial and family commitments and will be fine with the instability. Not for a seasoned person.
