Systems Software Engineer, Data Team Interview Experience

Process

Horrible, horrible, horrible experience. After applying online, I was contacted by a senior recruiter for a phone interview in early March. After many email exchanges, the interview was set for the following two weeks. The interviewer called me that day.

She had a very bad internet connection. After disconnecting from the Codepad a couple of times, which she also acknowledged, she went out to find a LAN cable. We are in the 21st century! A so-called IT company for a so-called software position should not have internet connection problems.

Anyway, after a week, I contacted them, and they wanted another phone interview. After setting another interview twice (due to the interviewer not showing up), I had an interview one month after our initial contact. The second interview was finished while the interviewer barely spoke at all. He only knew Java, while I was coding in C++.

The interview finished, and I have not heard back from them at all since then. It has been more than two months since my last interview. I also emailed the first recruiter a couple of times. Nothing. Not even a rejection. It is so unprofessional!

I should have put more 'horrible' in the first sentence!
