      Principal Software Engineer Interview

      7 May 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Upstox in Apr 2024

      Interview

      This HR team doesn't seem to care about candidates' time at all. My experience with their interview process was a complete disaster. They asked me to submit an assignment within one day, which I did after staying up all night. But then, they ignored my emails and stopped answering my calls for a whole week. When I finally got through, they made me wait another week for a follow-up call, only to give me a vague, meaningless response. It's clear they don't take their interview process seriously. This was hands down one of the worst experiences I've had.
