I was contacted via LinkedIn by a recruiter. During the initial phone call with the recruiter, I was assured junior-level people were hired for this position and that they hired people of all experience levels. I was then scheduled for a phone screen coding interview.
The interviewer, however, barely asked any technical questions during the phone screen and mostly just asked questions about my background. They never asked the coding questions they were supposed to ask.
I then reached out to the recruiter a few days after my interview and was told I would not be moving forward. The recruiter was nice and gave me a call with feedback, basically saying the interviewer felt I didn’t have the right skills. The interviewer barely asked any questions to assess my skills, so how did they come to that conclusion?
I feel like the interviewer already decided not to advance me before the screen and that I wasn’t fairly interviewed. Oh well, maybe I dodged a bullet considering Uber’s reputation.
