Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States

April 2, 2019
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Was emailed to schedule a phone screening. The interviewer was very low-energy, uninterested, and did not even introduce himself or say his name. He said nothing about the company or the role and just started reading through my resume, merely asking me "is that right?" to which I obviously responded affirmatively.

I tried to continue to seem excited about the opportunity despite his negativity. The call barely lasted five minutes and he closed with "I'll see if the hiring manager is interested in talking to you" and received a rejection email the second he hung up the phone. Don't waste your time, extremely unprofessional.
