Software Engineer Interview Experience

November 1, 2021
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

It took about three weeks to get an initial response. I was emailed by a recruiter to complete a take-home assessment. After it was completed, I was completely ghosted for over a month.

I followed up with the recruiter, who said she would have an update soon, and I was ghosted for another three weeks. Finally, I received an automated rejection email. There was no follow-up and no further contact from the recruiter.
