Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
Worst interview experience of my life. After solving the online test, I received no feedback for over a week. After I contacted them and gave my availability for interviews, nothing was scheduled for 3 weeks. So I reached out again, and they added a meeting to my calendar without inviting me or telling me about it. I emailed them yet again and was promised to have something scheduled in the near future. Nothing. I contacted them yet again; they were busy with some conference happening at the time but were promised a reply soon. Like always, nothing. And in the meantime, I think they filled the position.
