Software Engineering Manager Interview Experience - Brazil

April 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was contacted via LinkedIn for a pre-screening interview (45 minutes).

In this initial interview, the recruiter was very friendly and explained everything about the process to me. I learned there were two more steps:

  • Technical Execution Interview - 45 minutes
  • People Management Interview - 45 minutes

The first interview focused more on how you manage quality issues, team backlog concurrency, prioritization, and scalability.

The second interview was more about team building, hiring processes, etc. During this second interview, it seemed to me that the interviewer was not in the mood to conduct it. We finished in 20 minutes.

After a few days, I received an email from noreply stating they were not going to move forward at this time.

I tried to contact the recruiter to get suggestions for a future application, but I received no response. I found the feedback too cold and not engaging, which makes me hesitant to apply again for their process.
