Software Engineer Interview Experience - Madrid, Spain

September 1, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process consisted of a phone screening with an HR representative. They provided a brief introduction to the company, its services, the roles they were recruiting for, and the overall work experience.

However, the HR representative was needlessly abrasive and rude. For example, when they asked if I was in a hiring loop with another company, and I answered that I was interviewing for a position that used a different tech stack, they lashed out at me for not making up my mind over what I wanted to do.

After a few more unpleasant remarks, the HR representative reached out to me for an additional meeting, but I rejected the offer.
