Engineering Manager Interview Experience - Turkey

February 1, 2020
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied overseas via LinkedIn.

I was contacted after two weeks for a screening interview.

The next round was with the hiring manager. It wasn't very technical, focusing more on my managerial experience and capabilities. The interview lasted around 1 hour and 10 minutes and seemed very positive.

I was almost sure I'd be going for the next round, but within a week, I received a polite thank you email from HR with no feedback.

The job ad is still active; it looks like they are not in a hurry.

I think living overseas and being an active musician/producer was my main disadvantage.

There isn't much more to say. It's a pity I spent all this effort.

Questions

Very basic managerial and technical stuff. The interviewer had not much idea about the music industry and the app’s drawbacks, which surprised me a bit.
