Basys Interview Questions
& Process

Started with a call with a recruiter, they asked me some basic stuff about my background and I asked them basic questions about the role. They also talked about the company's plans for the next 5 years. Then I had a virtual interview with the hiring manager. They talked more about what the job involves and what they're looking for.

I had a LinkedIn call, then two more interviews with the recruiter. They asked about scheduling another interview, and I gave them my very open availability. Then I ghosted. They followed up several times by phone and email, but I got nothing. I checked my spam, junk, and regular email. It's better to just send something showing you're not interested instead of leaving people hanging.

Applied online and got an email the next day to set up a phone call. The whole thing took 2 days. I interviewed at BASYS Processing (Lenexa, KS). Recruiter sent an online assessment link, it wasn't very useful with just a couple of simple questions, not sure how they evaluate candidates based on that. Then there was a phone call with the recruiter. The recruiter didn't call at the scheduled time, I waited 15 minutes and then called her, the call was pretty straightforward. The recruiter mentioned on the call that she would set up a Skype call with the hiring manager. I sent a follow-up email with a thank you and my availability. The recruiter replied saying she'd get back to me, and about 30 minutes later I got an email from their generic address saying thank you for applying, and they've moved on with another candidate. Really unprofessional and not transparent!

It was a pretty fast and straightforward process, actually one of the better technical interviews I've had. They focused more on questions about how I organize my code and my best practices. I met with several managers, and they were all really nice!
