Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

After speaking with the recruiter, I moved on to two technical phone interviews. Both asked me to code modeling-related tasks using their own business use cases. Both interviewers were polite but late. The tasks were not complicated, and I completed everything they asked for in good time.

However, I was rejected the next day for a vague reason. I don't think the process is fair if technical interviews don't assess technical qualifications, but what can you do? Their company, their rules.

It is probably for the best because I might want to reconsider working for this company based on how things were handled, in my opinion.
