Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
Phone interview with an uninterested recruiter. The recruiter didn't provide any real feedback but decided to close the conversation at this stage.
It has never happened to me before that, while applying for a role equivalent to what I currently hold, the recruiter themselves stopped the process without giving any feedback on why, only with a silly, impersonal email.
It definitely doesn't convey a good image of the company.
Good riddance.
