Just terrible! 0 stars.
Summary: Scheduled a full day of onsite interviews two weeks in advance. I took a vacation day to accommodate this, then received an update at 8:30 PM the night before stating there would only be one round. I was confused and couldn't reach anyone for an explanation.
There was no sincerity to hire, no follow-up on the explanation, nor rescheduling. This company is dead to me.
More details:
The onsite interviews were scheduled and confirmed approximately two weeks in advance. It was planned as a full day of interview rounds, so I took a vacation day from my company to make a good impression. Then, at 8:30 PM the night before, I received an automated email stating there would only be one round of interview at 5 PM instead of a full day. I emailed back but did not receive an explanation. Summary: I wasted a vacation day (which I could have used to spend with my family and friends on an actual vacation!) in hopes of conducting a full day of interviews, but all but one were cancelled last minute.
The interview was also not what I expected. Although the recruiter mentioned it would be a technical interview session and provided me with a HackerRank link, the interviewer did not use it at all and instead chatted about my prior experience. Worse, he focused on the work experience I just started this June (2021) for almost 30 minutes, even though I had extensive experience at Bloomberg for 7.5 years (Yes, he'd rather discuss the role I'd barely held for 5 months rather than the other 7.5 years). He then proceeded to ask me very specific C++ questions, which I had used over four years ago.
None. They didn't happen. Just a terrible experience.
