Senior Front End Developer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
I interviewed for a Senior Frontend Engineer position at Palantir in London.
I have to say it wasn't a pleasant experience.
The recruiter seemed uninterested as soon as he answered the call, and the whole interview felt like he just wanted it over with from the beginning.
He was quite hostile in his tone and almost angry that I didn't have a computer science degree, which made me wonder why he interviewed me in the first place.
At the end of the call, he had a smug, bitter look on his face.
It was uncomfortable and awkward. I think maybe he had a serious chip on his shoulder about something.
Either way, his attitude has tarnished my opinion of Palantir.
