Ghosted. Interviewed with Engineering Managers, but the outcome was never communicated to me. They just disappeared. Other companies, large and small, always tell me the outcome. Qwilr stands out as the only one who ghosted me.

Interview process took a few weeks. Talent Acq, EM, Two technicals. Overall, I’m thoroughly disappointed with the lack of respect and unprofessionalism from the hiring managers. The hiring team have not even had the decency to reach out to me themselves (after 4 rounds of interviews!) and have been very two-faced in this whole experience. In my first technical session, majority of feedback I was given was incorrect and was made that clear, with the interviewer apologising multiple times, clearly lacking the technical depth in the first place. It was noted I was “reluctant to take feedback”, when it was made clear it wasn’t viable in the first place. In the second technical session, I believed I did great, it felt like a breeze. I asked for both positive and negative feedback at the end and was told overall I explained myself well and had a great approach with no negative feedback. All questions asked by the interviewers we’re addressed extensively. However it was echoed to the team after that I lacked technical depth even though I pushed for stretch goals as the task at hand was simple & had spare time. My experience has reflected that of similar to the other negative experiences reviews, so I’m not surprised in that sense. I find that the interviewing experience often reflects engineering culture and from what I have experienced, Qwilr need to level up their maturity and interviewing experience before they attempt to seek out any talent - because this is not how you do it. Lastly, if a candidate invests over 5 hours of time into interviewing, the least they can do is reach out being transparent and genuine, rather than hiding behind their external talent acquisition team to do the dirty work.
