I recently interviewed for a position with this company, and while I appreciated the opportunity, the interview process left a lot to be desired. The technical questions were tough, which is expected for a senior role, but there was a lack of balance. I felt the interview was overly focused on technical knowledge, with no opportunity to discuss soft skills or other key qualities that are essential for leadership positions.
One of the interviewers seemed overly strict and at times interrupted my answers, making it difficult to fully explain my thoughts. It felt like the interviewers weren’t considering the pressure that candidates face, and there was little empathy for the nerves that come with such a high-stakes situation. At times, it felt more like an interrogation rather than a conversation.
Additionally, the lack of engagement in discussing the broader aspects of the role, such as team dynamics or company culture, made the interview feel incomplete. Interviews should be a two-way conversation, allowing both sides to gauge the fit.
Overall, I felt the process was not as welcoming as it should be for potential candidates, and it left me questioning the company’s approach to hiring.
