Backend Developer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
August 9, 2024
Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
The interviewer was so rude and unprofessional. He was uninterested, monotonous, and even got my visa status wrong.
I had to cut the call in two minutes after he said there was no sponsorship for this role, which I can understand. However, at least be professional with the process.
So RUDE.
Questions
We can't sponsor visas. Do you need one?
