Engineering Manager Interview Experience

December 1, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The experience with the first two rounds was good. I had repeatedly asked HR if I was being considered among the top three shortlisted and if any offers had been made to existing candidates. I was very proactive in sending my interview availability; in fact, I chose the very first available interview slot.

While waiting for the next rounds, I was suddenly told that another candidate had been selected. I felt there was miscommunication throughout the entire process, and I perceived myself as a backup option. This was very disrespectful, and I felt the overall process was a waste of my time.

Questions

Overall managerial strategy questions and one technical round.
