Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Singapore, Singapore

July 10, 2020
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Was approached by a company HR and the interview was scheduled after a short initial call. The HR warned that the interview and subsequent processes could be quite slow. I was still positive to continue having researched about the business.

The interview was scheduled a week later. There was only a design question asked, which was easy, and I'm confident that I did well. The reaction of interviewers at the end felt like they were impressed. But there was no response from the company even after several weeks.

Though I had two other offers in my hand by then, I emailed the HR to hear some honest feedback for the sake of my own improvement. Soon after sending the email to the HR, I got a rejection email from their interviewing system.

There was no clear process, no correlation between result and performance in the interview and absolutely no feedback. Just a waste of time.

Questions
