Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. Acudí a una entrevista en Doc.ai en feb 2021
Entrevista
Recruiter responded well to a tight timeline and arranged a quick loop and screening calls. Initial conversations were ok however there were some pretty serious signals that caused me to drop out.
Nobody seemed to have any idea about what was going to happen to the company post acquisition. This makes joining at this time a risk for anyone applying.
On the loop panel was a member of leadership who actively participates in engineering at the company. They micromanaged the coding challenge and obliterated creative space which is a critical cultural signal for me personally.
The external recruiter blindly insisted culture was a fit with no data

The interview process was pretty straightforward, just asked more practical-focused questions rather than conceptual or algorithms. Overall I found the interview process to be pretty simple, short, and predictable. The interviewers did not try to trick me or ask me any obscure questions, the focus was definitely on best-practices and coding techniques I normally use.
