I applied online and the process took a week.
The first stage was a very high level, very basic java related interview in 30 minutes.
The second stage was a bit more then 90 mins and it consisted 3 parts:
- CV deep dive, and explain architecture of current system what you work on.
- Pair programming / tech questions.
- Behavioural questions.
I believe I answered everything right. All the tech stuff was 100% OK. I also answered the behavioural question inlined with their taste. I was pretty much hoping on a positive response, because I thought, we really could help each other. Instead of that, the rejection came on a base what wasn't even mentioned in the job description. Not as an essential requirement and nor a "nice to have".
If 100% or nearly 100% is not enough, and you are rejected on the basis of something what wasn't even mentioned in the job description, you can only think about personal reasons behind rejecting you. E.g. you weren't sympathetic to the interviewers. Which would be a shame, because I generally felt it was a nice chat about tech, architectures and programming. They might be after a dream, and the ideal is not existing at all. I believe, I was pretty close to that.
