Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I applied for a job and was required to complete an online assessment that included LeetCode-style questions and SQL.

After completing the first assessment, I was sent another one: the trait assessment.

Despite completing both, I am still waiting to hear back from them (three weeks).

After finishing all the assessments, I continued to receive email reminders to complete them.

This was a very disappointing experience, as I needed someone to contact for any clarifications or updates on why I kept getting reminders.
