Software Engineer Interview Experience - Auckland, New Zealand

February 5, 2024
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took two weeks.

Before the first round, which was a phone call with HR, they specifically asked you to research the company and memorize company values. But after the call, they decided that you didn't have enough experience with relevant technologies. So you had to invest your time before they checked your relevance. Their schedule was busy, and you had to wait two weeks to know that your experience wasn't relevant, while in some companies with similar positions my experience is okay, but not here. And why does anyone need to know your company values before working there? Also, nobody uses phones in 2024 anymore, as they should use Google Meet, etc. The first step of the interview process shows how little they value applicants.
