I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ScienceLogic (London, England) in Dec 2023
Interview
Initial video screen call. They were impressed with my experience so they fast tracked me into the next video call with a manager. Same again. Very impressed, Very lovely people to talk with. I was then fast tracked to video call their Software Architect.
He was very cold from the start, and I felt he took issue with my previous job title that was higher than his own. I was asked to explain my experience, and then was asked some unexpected questions. The types of questions that you Google when you need them, and don't commit to memory.
I was then rejected with a generic, "not experienced" enough email. - Funny because the job description said they wanted someone that had room to grow and learn! (not a senior position) - I asked for further clarification on which part I failed on, but received no response.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Name all the OS signals.

I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ScienceLogic in Feb 2016
Interview
Applied through college or university. The recruiter contacted me and scheduled a technical phone interview the next day. I cleared the phone interview and they said they will contact me for an on-site interview. Every week I received a call from the recruiter updating me about my application. They told they are going to send me an assignment which i need to complete before a deadline. I do not understand what happen, but suddenly they called me and told they decided to pursue other candidates. They took five weeks to decide this. Not really a fair interview process is what I feel (at least in my case). But ultimately, it is just business and nothing personal.
