Back-End Developer/Full Stack Developer Interview Experience - Helsinki, Finland

February 1, 2017
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I had previously seen open job advertisements for a company (Helsinki) on Glassdoor and other platforms. I interviewed with them two years ago but withdrew my application. Recently, I re-established contact with an HR representative on LinkedIn and sent them a message.

I submitted my CV and received a call approximately a week later. We conducted a short phone interview, after which I was provided with a list of around ten tasks. Two of these tasks involved creating JavaScript snippets in jsFiddle.

I spent an entire day completing all the tasks and submitted my results. I was promised a response by the end of that week, but I received nothing.

Finally, I received a call the following week. They informed me that while I hadn't made any significant mistakes, they would not be hiring me. They apologized, stating they had hired some individuals and would be taking a short break before contacting me about future openings. This struck me as a rather weak excuse, considering I had dedicated a full day to their tasks, and they hadn't even invited me for a formal interview. Nevertheless, I accepted their decision.

I have since noticed they have posted new job advertisements, but they have, predictably, not contacted me again.

Questions

They asked if I am interested in working on their Unity Ads project or the other project that is secret and they can't tell me anything about.
