Process

The interview process began with a phone screen, followed by a take-home assignment, and then a panel interview.

After everything went well, hiring managers from Paris decided within 30 minutes of chatting with me (during team matching) that they could not provide me with a "senior" role, and I would only receive an SDE2 role.

This seemed quite suspicious, as they appeared biased against me as a non-European candidate.

Later, when I checked the LinkedIn profiles of senior engineers at Datadog, they had significantly less experience than I do.
