Software Engineer Interview Experience - Madrid, Spain
Process
I had a call with HR, and after that got a rejection. I guess we didn't align expectation-wise / experience-wise.
It was a bit disappointing, especially because I felt the conversation went well, but I suppose they were looking for a slightly different background or level of experience than what I could offer.
Still, it was a good learning experience, and I’ll take the feedback as something to improve on for future opportunities.
