Alcoa Software Engineer interview experience

But then HR reached out to tell me they wouldn’t be proceeding. The reason was that they’d already decided they had enough good candidates, so the whole interview was canceled.

The disappointing part wasn’t just that it ended early—it was the lack of professionalism around it. I didn’t get a conversation or clear next steps, just a quick stop, which left me feeling like the process wasn’t handled with much care from their side.
