Senior Staff Software Engineer Interview Experience - Switzerland
Process
First interview was with the hiring manager. They asked some usual CV-related questions, after which I was informed of my rejection without any explanation or feedback. That's a rather opinionated judgment and a strange process, when a hiring manager gets to make hiring decisions without even talking about tech skills.
Questions
Some CV-related questions, not assessing my technical skills.
