Process

The interview process with Wish was an overall negative experience.

It started with reading existing reviews on Glassdoor, and suspecting it wouldn't be different for me. And unfortunately, I was right.

To make this short and concise, I will say that there were a few red flags along the way:

  1. No itinerary for the onsite interview, so you don't even know who you are meeting. The only thing I knew was I was meeting two people, and lunch was provided. I guessed I would meet the third person if I did really well.

  2. Invited to the wrong floor (40th instead of 38th).

  3. The first interview was reasonable, and I did not do terribly.

The second interview was a joke. The person was clearly informed by the QA person that she did not like me, so I was not even given a chance to demonstrate my abilities. He seemed indifferent, impersonal, and bored. It lasted 3-4 minutes. I have never had such an experience throughout my career.

Why make a person take PTO or free time and spend a day getting ready, driving, parking, and going back home?

  1. I never wanted to skip lunch as much as I wanted to that day, and was grateful they never brought it up again. But I think it reflects perfectly on the carelessness and incompetence of the company. If you say you'll provide it, follow through.
