Manchester, NHPosted Mar 2022 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through three interviews that were pretty structured: an HR screen, then time with an engineering manager, and then a panel interview with the engineering team.

What surprised me was that there weren’t really technical questions until the last interview, and even then they were minor.

The first HR conversation included a discussion of salary and vacation requirements. I made my expectations clear, and I was told they were within range. When an offer came, it didn’t match what had been discussed: vacation time was only two weeks and the salary was around 20k under my stated minimum. I countered and waited for an update, but after that point I was essentially ignored.

The process ended with no offer acceptance from me because I never heard back after
