Data Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Everyone I spoke with was very nice. However, the hiring process itself was a negative experience.

When I spoke with the recruiter, they reassured me that they would be available for questions and that they would keep in close touch. After I finished all of my initial interview rounds, I asked my recruiter what the timeline would be and what to expect next, but did not get a response.

Two weeks later, I noticed that the job title had changed, and I sent another email inquiring about that. I have yet to receive a response.

At this point, I assumed I would not be moving forward. However, it took an entire extra month to get a rejection email for a job I did not even apply for (a rejection for a data scientist position, but I had interviewed for a data engineering position).

The whole process struck me as very unprofessional, especially when compared to other companies where I have interviewed and received feedback within days, positive or negative. I feel that is the least a company can do when you put the time and effort into their interview rounds, but Visa really missed the mark, in my opinion.
