United StatesPosted Oct 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview cycle had a rougher tone than I expected because the process felt unprofessional or unpleasant in how it was run.

One recruiter call I had stood out immediately: the person was late, sounded distracted, and didn’t seem engaged. After promising to follow up, I never received an update.

Another time, the HR contact seemed cold and impatient, and even brought up details that didn’t match what I applied for. It threw me off, and I ended up cutting my answers short just to get through the call.

There was also a video pairing experience that felt genuinely hostile. The interviewer came across as cold and distant, then took direct control during a paired programming exercise where my suggestions were ignored.
