Software Engineer, Developer Productivity Interview Experience - India

September 1, 2023
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied for the job (Developer Productivity) via LinkedIn. The recruiter reached out to me, and after the initial conversation, she set up my first technical (coding) round online.

The interview went well, and I was very impressed by the interviewer and the conversation.

After two days, the recruiter reached out again, confirming that I had cleared the first round and asking if I would be interested in coming to their office for the rest of the interviews.

I had two more technical rounds of interviews on-site.

The first was a coding challenge, and the next round was an LLD (Low-Level Design) round.

Again, in my opinion, the interviews went very well, and I got positive vibes from the interviewers as well.

After another two days, the recruiter called, confirming that the rounds were positive and that they wanted to hold the last round with their India Head, which would be an online call.

The call went well. It involved situational questions and a small coding challenge.

I was very positive that I would get an offer.

The team reached back after two to three days and asked for my documents (previous pay slips, expected salary, etc.).

However, after all this, they just ghosted me.

Upon calling and asking for feedback, they mentioned that they had put my profile on hold and would get back after two weeks.

It is very frustrating when companies of such caliber do not give a straightforward answer. That was the last conversation, and after that, they just ghosted me. No feedback, no response, just 'on hold'.

Questions
