      Backend Software Engineer Interview

      3 Mar 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Vancouver, BC
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Later (Vancouver, BC) in Feb 2020

      Interview

      Had an initial phone screen with the Recruiter, which was followed by a take home challenge using Ruby on Rails. It basically involved building a simple scalable API .After successfully completing the challenge and submitting the solution, they rejected me the next day. There was absolutely no feedback given on what went wrong and both the recruiter and the technical lead were unresponsive. Absolutely horrible experience.

We are sad to hear that your experience was not a positive one, and we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with information that we can use to further improve our interview process.
