Senior Security Operations Engineer Interview Experience - Barcelona, Spain

January 1, 2019
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process consisted of:

  • A brief conversation over video-chat regarding my experience, the position requirements, and so on.
  • A "homework" assessment of technical security understanding.
  • A technical interview with the security team.
  • A four-hour onsite interview with:
    • The security team
    • The CTO
    • The Head of IT
    • The Chief People Officer

The overall interview process seemed mostly rational, if not a little on the heavy side. After the third stage, I was told I was not suitable for the role originally advertised, but Typeform said they would reshape the role to fit the value I could bring.

Around one week after the onsite interview, I was told, without feedback, that I wouldn't be offered the position.

I understand that the role, company, and myself may not have been entirely suitable, which is why each interview stage is equally necessary. However, I was very disappointed that, despite three separate and polite follow-ups, I was not given any feedback as to why I wasn't offered the role. I feel that after all the time both parties invested in the process, another five-minute email to offer some feedback is more than integral and reasonable.

For this reason, I wouldn't apply for a future role at Typeform and unfortunately have a sour feeling overall about the interview process.
