Truly the worst interview experience I ever had. I knew something was fishy when they asked me to open up an IDE on my personal computer and screenshare (they didn't notify me about this before the interview). Would it have been an automatic disqualification if didn't have one installed? What if I was on a friend's computer that didn't have a dev environment set up, now what? They didn't even have a question on hand, they freestyled it on the spot! I've interviewed with their competitors and received offers, so I know what I went through today is not the industry standard. Is it really that hard to make an online codepen session and send a link out?
I get that the people conducting the interviews are sometimes doing it against their will, so I understand it can be a chore. But don't suck your teeth and groan when I ask questions like "what is your role at the company" and "what is company culture like?" It makes you and the company look bad.
When I attend technical interviews, I always leave the session learning something new even if goes south. This time I just felt disrespected and cheated out of fair chance. Extremely unprofessional experience, at least I learned that company culture is in the gutter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Unit Testing and Front end dev (this was advertised as a java role)
Interviewed with VP two weeks ago, after that no response from the recruiter about the interview or next steps still following up with the recruiter no response. At least I am expecting to get a response about the interview update.
Got contacted by an hr through LinkedIn and had a call the next day, was assured that a hiring manager would contact me soon to set up an interview. Got a response from them 2 weeks later, set up an interview with the developers. Ghosted after it.
“Did the J.P. Morgan online assessment—no live interview. It was mostly logic and problem-solving questions, not typical leetcode stuff. Fairly tricky, but instructions were clear and the timing felt reasonable
