      Senior Python Software Engineer Interview

      7 Jul 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Jaipur, Rajasthan
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Checkmate (Jaipur, Rajasthan) in Jun 2025

      Interview

      They found me on Upwork and contacted me first. The process started with one HR interview, then I had 3 technical interviews and one final interview with the CEO. I passed all the technical rounds and the CEO round too. The technical questions were good and tested my deep knowledge of programming and technology. The CEO round was with Vishal, who was very nice and friendly. He explained things clearly and told me what they expected from the role. I really liked talking with him. The main problem was with the HR team and management. At first, they told me a salary range, and I asked for something within that range. But later, they kept asking me to accept a lower salary. They even said I did better than they expected, but they still couldn't offer what they promised at the beginning. This was very disappointing. They wanted me to work night shifts, which I was okay with. I gave interviews 4-5 times during late night hours and was helpful throughout the whole process. After our final talk about salary, they said they would get back to me, but they never did. It felt like a complete waste of time. They first attracted me with a good salary offer, then showed what they could actually pay. They also kept me waiting like a backup option for too long. It's been almost 3 weeks since our last discussion, and they still haven't given me a final answer. When I followed up, they said they were checking other candidates and would decide in one week. But I still haven't heard anything from them.RetryClaude can make mistakes. Please double-check responses.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1
