Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Ottawa, Canada

March 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I received an email from a recruiter, and then a call was scheduled for a phone screen.

After that, a technical interview was established.

On the day of this second interview, the recruiter reached out again, as if the first call never happened. This was obviously a mistake, but it goes to show how much the company cares about their interviewees.

The technical interview involved a coding problem about processing a log file of user events on a web page and comparing it to a list of paths. The problem was ill-defined, and when I brought up edge cases and business considerations, the interviewer was mostly annoyed, focusing primarily on completing the coding problem.

A few days later, I received a generic email stating that I was not selected.
