Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Ottawa, Canada

August 1, 2017
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online, as I thought my experience was relevant to what they seek: open-source projects, high-load projects, platform design and implementation, and passion for technology, with proofs in open-source contributions.

Unfortunately, after a 15-minute call with HR, I received a standard rejection email stating that I was not a candidate they wished to proceed with. I have no words to say, really.

There was no coding assignment, no technical interview, nothing.

I have no clue why this was a failure or what the reason was for not proceeding with my application.
