Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Singapore, Singapore
Process
The recruiter sent me the calendar appointment for the pre-screen within a week. It was a 20-minute call, and they judged my whole career path with this single call.
I was a bit surprised by their feedback before they dropped off the call, stating that I lacked the skills they were looking for. I wasn't even going to the technical round. The recruiter should not disrespect a candidate like this.
