Process
The interview was scheduled for 45 minutes. After providing the coding question on Collabedit, the interviewer asked if he could step out at the very beginning of the interview. He returned after 35 minutes, leaving only 5 minutes remaining.
I was also told that my code was inefficient and that another candidate had finished it accurately.
At the very least, for an interview that is scheduled, I kindly request that the interviewer stays for the duration of the interview. This allows candidates to discuss any doubts they may have.
This was not a good interview experience. Perhaps it is a good company, but the interview process and the interviewer were not good. Is this typical of startup recruiting procedures?

Veeva Systems Work Experiences
- 5.0Great Learning, Slight ChaosSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeJune 1, 2020Pros: Everyone was eager to share their experience and knowledge. Blended in without a hiccup. Tried many new things, tech & life wise.Cons: - There was a slight management change during my internship, but the management, both past and new, tried their absolute best to make everyone feel comfortable. - During releases, things can get a bit crazy, but just a bit.
- 4.0depends on what you wantSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeBarcelona, Catalonia, SpainNovember 25, 2023Pros: Cool office and people with many activities. BenefitsCons: Boring (and ugly) software. Too technocratic/corporational. Managers ticking boxes of HR, not really caring about people; allow rude attitudes. Not enough holidays (23 days). Flexible but not a flexible timetable. Too stressful. Many layoffs / instability. Stocks are a company's trick.
- 4.0Amazing, helpful colleaguesSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeNovember 26, 2021Pros: Even though I was a working student, they helped me a lot to manage my time. My manager was flexible with my timing and gave me time-to-time feedback on improvement. My opinions and feedback were considered, even though I had less experience.Cons: Nothing much, but being a student job, it was hectic for me. They expected delivery on time, which was difficult in my case. It's just a bit sad that it didn't work out as a full-time role. But overall, there is nothing much to complain about.
