My experience with the initial recruiter screening was disappointing. The interviewer seemed disengaged, barely made eye contact, and treated the screening as a perfunctory task, wrapping it up in just 10 minutes. Despite my thorough preparation and follow-up questions, the conversation felt dismissive rather than professional.

Interview
The process for interviewing was quite interesting. I had to do a C# exam online that was adaptive (the more I got questions right, the harder they got, but if I started getting them wrong, they got slightly easier). Then my technical interview was focused around the mistakes I made on the exam, what information I was missing to get them right, and once they explained the concepts I was missing, they asked me to then choose the correct answer. It felt less stressful than a typical technical interview.

Interview
The process was professional and moved at a great pace. It started with a recruiter screen, followed by a meeting with the hiring manager, and concluded with three panel interviews. Each conversation felt like a genuine peer-to-peer discussion about building high-performance platforms. The recruitment team was very communicative and open throughout the negotiation. Overall, a very positive experience.
