Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

October 23, 2013
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Applied through the website, and the HR coordinator (maybe manager) contacted me for a phone interview.

We scheduled one, and the interviewer never called at the scheduled time. I emailed back, they apologized and scheduled another one.

The next time they called, there were two interviewers. Apparently, they liked me enough to fly me over to do an in-person interview. I have to admit, their HR was very accommodating and let me come in a few days earlier to visit friends.

I had the interview on a Monday with eight people, in four sessions (two per session). The last one was canceled. It seemed like a successful interview.

When I got home the next day, I sent my thank-you letter to the hiring manager and was told I'd hear from them soon.

It's been over a month since they responded. I sent two emails to the HR coordinator and not a single peep. I'm assuming they rejected me, so I'm going to mark this one up as a "no offer."

Questions

Asked some industry-standard questions. Even asked some personal ones too, but I didn't mind. They were just asking me if I was married or not.
