Devoteam Interview Questions
& Process

Standard process with four interviews. I was contacted on LinkedIn multiple times and finally agreed to start the process. It started with an HR interview, then two interviews with the technical director and regional director, and finally, a last interview with the practice director who gave me a positive response. After that, I heard nothing more. I had already heard about this unhealthy and unprofessional behavior but wanted to verify it myself. They are arrogant but don't have the budget for the profiles they relentlessly contact on LinkedIn.

I was contacted on LinkedIn by Devoteam N Platform and we quickly scheduled a first phone interview which went really well. Then, I had a video interview that also went very well, lasting 1h30 instead of the planned 1h. At the end, the recruiter mentioned a usual feedback timeframe of 4-5 days. Two months later, I still haven't heard back despite sending a follow-up email. Two weeks after this interview, another recruiter from the same company (Devoteam creative Tech) did the same thing after I completed a full process and was promised feedback the next day (Friday) or Monday at the latest. To this day, zero news, even after follow-ups from a colleague who referred me internally, to get an update. Clearly, institutionalized ghosting.

We'll start with a quick 30-minute chat to get acquainted, go over the role, and check basic stuff like your background, why you're interested, and when you could start. Then, you'll have a more in-depth talk with someone from HR about your experience, skills, what you're looking for, and how you might fit with our company. Finally, you'll connect with a designer on the team to go over your technical skills, how you work, and your feel for product and design.

The first interview went very well with the creative tribe director (PO/PM/UX). Then I had an interview with a salesperson who, from the beginning of the interview, showed he was bored, with 'pfffff' sounds when I talked about my background, and a mocking tone when I mentioned I had worked on strategy, UX, design, and delivery for an e-commerce website for a garden furniture company. He said, 'Oh, garden furniture?' with a mocking tone, and kept repeating that his client was Louis Vuitton. He quickly made it clear to me that despite my 7 years of experience, 4 years in London, my 4 years of expertise in e-commerce, and my UX skills, none of it would be enough. Then, when I dared to talk about the variety of roles from one mission to another, he made a very harsh remark about how they wouldn't change my mission 'every other day,' even though that wasn't my point at all. He then added that a change of tribe is to be expected in a career plan. Who in 2025 talks about a career plan when people in tech change companies every 2-3 years on average? Anyway, extremely arrogant attitude and a 70s mentality, which for a fifty-something like the salesperson, is very surprising. I sent an email to the creative tribe director (PO, PM, UX) to emphasize my motivation to join the company, but despite a follow-up on LinkedIn, no response! What a lack of professionalism!
