Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Warsaw, Poland

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process starts with the Recruiting HR calling you after your application. The next round is a take-home technical task, which I believe I did my best on, considering the 24-hour limitation.

The feedback I received was rude, to say the least: "The project has a lack of tidiness in general. A lot of TODOs, comments, bad formatting."

Lack of tidiness/formatting? The entire project was formatted using regular tools in the IDE. TODOs? There were two TODOs – apparently, that's too many for the reviewer.

This was a 24-hour task, and this is the review they gave. For a few hundred lines of code, an experienced Senior Developer didn't find any good points.

To say the least, these individuals try to degrade your efforts. So, the best approach is to not give them any chances.

Secondly, the number of jobs this company advertises is questionable. Do they genuinely have so many jobs and vacancies throughout the year, or is this some kind of marketing tactic to maintain visibility?

It's best to avoid this company and its roles, especially if they ask you for a technical task.
