Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States

Process

Phone call, tech call, then onsite, then ghosted. The interview process was all over the place, and it seemed as if everyone there was incredibly fake.

They asked a few questions about caching, but when I asked for clarification or any feedback, they would not give any. This is quite annoying when you can cache data in a few different ways, and I suspect the interviewer had little to no interest in even being there.

They also use their own custom-built front-end library, which they decided to scrap. Working with that front-end to any serious extent would make you un-hireable to a lot of places.
