London, EnglandPosted Jul 2023 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I got contacted by text message/WhatsApp from someone on the team to schedule an interview, which already felt a bit off because I hadn’t really had recruiter contact at all during the recruitment process.

The behavior became especially apparent after I was asked where I was from, and I felt like the interaction turned into something personal instead of professional.

It didn’t help that the interview seemed tightly constrained by the room and setup—there wasn’t enough time or sound quality to make it easy to stay composed. I didn’t see a clear way to complain either, since I couldn’t find a direct HR
