Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Several exercises related to the technology I was applying for. Some other talks about previous experience with team leaders and managers.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Split Software (Austin, TX) in Feb 2021
Interview
Short and uneventful. Hiring Manager was a good communicator; but seemed distracted. I could not get a read on whether the interview was going well...which is not common. It may have been because of the tense environment/situation the company was in at the time.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Split Software
Interview
Simple, high level and no depth.
3: 30 Minute Zoom conversations across 1 week, then weeks of nothing as other candidates "caught up".
Interviewers shared zero hesitations and excitement for working together as "exactly what's needed". Then weeks of no updates until updated after an offer was sent, that I was no longer being considered. No "second round" or an opportunity for the interviewing team to validate the areas they were initially confident in or unpack the areas they may of had growing concerns, over the weeks of zero interaction.
Knowing this was a "can't miss hire" in the team's eyes my recommendation would be to have a more in-depth interview process and move past only a few 30 minute get to know you conversations.

Question 1
Nothing unexpected or unique. "why split" "why leave your current org" "why now"
