Process
Unpunctual, unprofessional HR and a rude interviewer sum up the Coupang experience.
I applied online and then received an email from HR for the next rounds.
HR rescheduled the interview at least six times (yes, six times) before conducting an actual call.
Following that, I had a technical interview where the interviewer was very rude and unprofessional in behavior.
I highly recommend not entertaining this company, even if you receive an interview call.
