Candidate-reported interview process
A company recruiter reached out, and we scheduled a Zoom meeting with three engineers. It was a quick chat with intros and some questions about my previous projects. They asked me to dive deeper into topics, specifically testing my technical knowledge and how I approach problems. A lot of the questions were about electronics.
The interview was online due to covid. It was a 30 minute session covering common behavioral questions, which weren't too challenging. I got positive feedback, leading to a follow-up personal interview. This stage required discussing common knowledge related to the role I was applying for.
The interview process was okay. I answered everything accordingly. One interviewer was being quite rude, saying things like 'I just don't buy what you're saying,' and when the interview ended, he said, 'I'm just disappointed.'
