Sterling, VAPosted May 2010 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first step was a phone screen with the hiring manager.

The experience felt a bit weird to me because they only asked two technical questions to decide whether to bring me in. Once I was on site, I did four interviews, but the tone felt off from the start.

There was a clear lack of interest from the interviewers: they didn’t really try to learn about me, and instead stuck to their predetermined questions. The questions didn’t include brain teasers, but many of them felt impractical, and the hiring manager’s description of the job responsibilities didn’t match what I experienced during the interviews.

I didn’t get an offer. I left frustrated
