Process

There was an initial phone screen followed by another phone screen then they brought me to the office.

The biggest impression I got was that they didn't know what they wanted and they were unprofessional.

They brought us into a dim top level office where we had to code on very slow computers. We had 45 minutes. Nothing was setup and I spent 20 minutes fiddling with the IDE.

After that were 3 rounds of "interviews" each with two people. The first was super unprofessional and kept eating his nails in front of me. The rest were just "explain this on your resume". It was stupid, and then maybe one guy would ask some trivia about the language you did. It wasn't structured.

Watch out for the telltale signs that you'll be overworked.

  • Catered lunch : You're not allowed to leave your desk for lunch and will be eating it there.
  • In house gym: Cannot use during your lunch break
  • The facilities had dim lighting with crowded facilities.
  • There was no privacy.
  • There were no laptops.
