Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

December 16, 2025
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter.

Recruiter sent me this email with a promise to chat with a Googler at a specific date and time. I was a little bit worried about the fact that no appointments were scheduled in any kind of calendar. And, of course, nobody contacted me, and there was no Googler this time! So, I am disappointed. I don’t even know how to categorize this behaviour. You can draw your own conclusions.

Questions

Nobody called me at the promised date and time on 15.12.2025 at 14.30 EET.
