Initial screening -> be prepared to speak about your tech stack, your work experience and background. Talk about how you align with the role and the company values.
The hackerrank assessment is Kubernetes intensive and does not really focus on anything else.
The third interview did not take place even though I did well in the technical assessment. The interview was scheduled however their recruiter went MIA. I could not get in touch with her as her email account was deactivated.
The Infra Team Lead sent me this email shortly afterwards:
Following up on your suggestion to meet next Wednesday, I unfortunately have some news that I need to share with you. Due to some unforeseen shifts in our priorities, we have had to put a hold on filling this particular role at this time.
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment this may cause, especially given that we had scheduled a time to connect. We were very much looking forward to speaking with you again.
Please be assured that we will definitely reach out to you should our hiring plans for this position change in the future.
