Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Had a brief call with a recruiter who didn't seem to care about the company or me as a person.

He explained that there was a tech screen through Hackerrank and that the process typically takes 2-3 weeks.

I completed the Hackerrank assessment that day. After about 10 days, I emailed the recruiter back; there was no response.

After two weeks, I emailed again; there was no response.

After 16 days, I emailed again, and the recruiter finally replied. He didn't apologize for ghosting and said they weren't moving forward, with no additional information.

Horrible experience from a lackluster "level 2" recruiter who doesn't care about his candidates.
