Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Peru

Process

The process was awful. The HR recruiter never gave me feedback, and the technical interview was with one Colombian who only asked me questions about microservices theory, patterns, etc. Some questions I did not know, and then I was rejected.

They didn't mind about my experience or my level in algorithms. Maybe that was the feedback, but HR didn't tell me to improve in the future, or etc.

In addition, the interviewer has no more experience than me in software development. I researched on LinkedIn. I do not recommend this process.

Questions

Patterns, microservices, system design.

Tell me about yourself (but it is not important to them).

Strong technical challenges overshadowed by instability and micromanagement

Frontend Engineer • Current Employee

Pros: Remote work, strong technical challenges, exposure to large-scale products, and opportunities to collaborate with talented engineers across different teams.

Cons: Frequent reorganizations and layoffs create a constant sense of instability. Priorities can change quickly, decisions are sometimes made without enough context, and some teams experience micromanagement. After layoffs, responsibilities often increase for the people who remain, while communication around those changes can feel unclear or impersonal. Performance does not determine layoffs, and only cost benefit; this affects confidence and does not inspire you to give your 100%.
